IVHQ Christmas Program in Guatemala

I volunteered with IVHQ for their Christmas program in Antigua, Guatemala. This was my first experience with IVHQ and I will definitely volunteer with them again. I stayed with a local family who were kind, thoughtful and made me feel right at home. The accommodations were modest but clean and comfortable. The Christmas program was a great experience because we had the opportunity to do a variety of activities including working with seniors and children, picking coffee beans, and a cultural immersion. I appreciate that IVHQ partners with local organizations on the ground.

I volunteered at a turtle sanctuary, collecting the eggs, and managing the turtle hatchlings. The site included crocodiles, and deer. The work was interesting, and the people were kind, appreciative, and helpful.
