Childcare & Community Volunteer Work in Peru for Teenagers
Program Overview
Dedicate your time and skills contributing to the Care & Community project of Projects Abroad. As a volunteer, a big chunk of your time will be spent on practical activities like gardening, cleaning, painting, and renovating. On the other hand, some will be spent collaborating with local Peruvians in various areas, including a kindergarten or an elderly care home.
You will take Spanish lessons to learn commonly used terms and phrases. You will also attend practical workshops, which involve interactions with the community. Developing your language skills will make communicating with locals much easier. Of course, you will have time to explore Peru together with other teens.
