This versatile NGO management & administration experience and observation program gives insight into all aspects of running the Aldeas de Paz Foundation. It's geared toward participants interested in starting their own charity or who want hands-on experience in the day-to-day running of a grassroots NGO. Volunteers and interns observe and assist the coordinator and director with office work, as well as in-community project support, administrative work, and the coordination and supervision of community programs and participating volunteers. The NGO management volunteers and interns also help ensure the well-being of our volunteers and their coordination and full integration into various programs offered, as well as into the social life of the community. The foundation relies on NGO volunteers and interns to ensure smooth operations and therefore requires flexible and dedicated volunteers. Direct work with our primary beneficiaries is an essential part of the work of Aldeas de Paz, so NGO volunteers and interns are also expected to participate in foundation-wide events and activities involving our beneficiaries.

Join the family of over 4,100 volunteers that have traveled abroad with BLUE Missions to serve on a water or sanitation project. You’ll live in a rural community for 7 days working, learning, and living in the moment. Whether you are in high school, college, or an adult we have a service trip for you. Our projects wouldn’t be possible without volunteers like you! During the trip, we'll complete the construction of a water or sanitation project. The communities we work in either lack access to running water safe for drinking or lack of access to hygienic bathrooms. In the water project, our team will construct a water system, in which a freshwater source will be connected via gravity-driven aqueduct to the homes of every family. In the sanitation project, families in need of bathrooms will have ventilated improved pit latrines built adjacent to their homes. Prepare to get your hands dirty carrying pipe, digging trenches, mixing cement, and building latrines. You'll work alongside locals, get to know their stories, and accomplish together a major infrastructure milestone for their community.
