Evidence of Mexico's ancient cultural heritage can be found all over the country; ancient peoples such as the Maya and Aztecs have left many traces of their once-glorious reign. Today, Mexico's landscape is dotted with monuments from these civilizations, that have never lost their stunning appearance over the course of many centuries. Come experience Mexican culture and learn Spanish on your gap year in Mexico!
Volunteer work in Mexico
Your volunteer work in Mexico will include helping disadvantaged people in a local Mexican support project – at an orphanage, a home for street children, or a school. The indigenous population in particular often lives under poverty-stricken conditions.
Although you won't fix the problems of the world through your volunteer work in Mexico, your commitment is very important to the people in this particular region, and is very much appreciated. You will get to know the difficulties, as well as the positive and wonderful aspects of Mexico. Collaboration with the friendly Mexican people is certainly an amazing experience.
Your volunteer work in Mexico will start immediately after the language course and last 4 weeks, although it can be extended for a cost of £80 (US$ 125 / 95 €) per week for accommodation. You will live in a shared apartment with other volunteers during your volunteer work in Mexico, and meals during this time are not included in the programme price.
