Fundacion Bolivar Education is a private, nonprofit organization that is not associated with any political or religious activities. Created in January 2008 with the aim of channeling more efficiently volunteer work through several organizations, the foundation has since been building bridges between volunteers and organizations, with volunteers benefiting from the experience acquired through projects and the organizations benefiting from the time, love, and energy volunteers offer for free. We make sure volunteering becomes a wonderful experience for both parties. We offer a broad range of volunteering opportunities in a variety of fields, including children and youth, elderly, gender, teaching, health, environment, animal welfare, and development.
