Volunteer work in Venezuela
If it's a tropical paradise you seek, look no further than Venezuela! With its steamy rainforests, teeming with ocelots, armadillos, and anacondas and its friendly local people with their thriving indigenous culture, Venezuela has all the makings of a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Volunteer work in Venezuela
Depending on your project, your four weeks of volunteer work in Venezuela in Mérida or Playa Colorada will include:
- Caring for and instructing street children and orphans
- Caring for sick and injured animals and cleaning out stalls in an animal shelter
- Cleaning beaches and local recreation areas, planting trees, working in marine or animal protection projects, and organising environmental campaigns
- Building or renovating free-time facilities for children or teenagers (example: football or volleyball fields)
Whatever your volunteer work in Venezuela entails, you will have the chance to practice your Spanish skills in direct contact with the local people.
