Joining Projects Abroad as a care volunteer in Mexico, you will have an important role to play in the orphanages, care centers, and kindergartens where we work. Volunteers at all our care placements in Mexico are engaged in helping children who have few other people they can turn to. Volunteering in Mexico should be considered a challenging, but also an incredibly rewarding endeavor.

You are not required to have previous experiences working with children, provided that you are passionate and committed to the job and the people you're trying to help. Whether you are on a gap year, an older volunteer on a career break or volunteering for a summer abroad, you will have a role to play and your contribution will be valued.

Projects Abroad has a variety of care placements in Guadalajara, Mexico's second largest city, and Ciudad Guzman, a smaller town in the volcanic region a couple of hours south. Volunteering in Mexico could see you working in an orphanage, kindergarten, pediatric ward or center for children with mental and physical disabilities. Our partner organizations include the Red Cross, who operate care centers in the region.
