Volunteer Work with Children in Ecuador, South America
Program Overview
Volunteering with children abroad is one of the most meaningful and rewarding things you can do on your travels. ELEP Volunteer & Internship Programs welcomes and encourages committed individuals to apply as volunteers and collaborate with their helping hand in our childcare volunteer project in Ecuador, Latin America.
There are many different ways you can help children in Ecuador. Whatever your skills and experience, and how much time you can offer, we have a volunteering opportunity for you. As a volunteer, you will be assisting the children in daily care and personal hygiene, homework, reading, singing, playing, teaching, going out for walks, giving attention, and helping them improve their lives will empower these children to be better individuals.
Volunteer with abandoned, abused, mistreated, or disabled children and make a real and positive contribution to Ecuador. This opportunity is available all year round for people who love to be with children.
