Description: The orphanages in Peru aim to offer homes, educations, and hope for orphans. At this particular program, volunteers primarily help orphans kids by teaching basic English and organizing creative, extra-curricular activities such as game, singing, music, drawing, etc. This program is the perfect place for volunteers looking for opportunities to share their love, passion, and skills with these very-unfortunate children.

Street Children Project in Peru

Highlights: In this program you will teach basic English to the children. In this program, volunteers work in a very poor shelter for transient street children. They receive children who will be sent back with their families if they ran away, or sent to orphanages if they were abandoned. The children, ages 5 through 17, do not have anything to do while the police and the court decide what to do with them and they are often remained locked in rooms. So volunteers keep them company, teach them English, play with them, paint or read. Kids love volunteers at these projects because volunteers are the only company they have. Working in the orphanage offers the opportunities to share your time, love, and passion for those children who have rarely experienced love in their life.

Qualifications: There are no specific qualifications needed to join IFRE's volunteer street children project in Peru . However, volunteers are expected to be flexible and patient as well as possess a passion and love for children.

    Institute For Field Research Expeditions's Mission Statement: The mission of our volunteer abroad program is to offer meaningful volunteer abroad opportunities for volunteers and to seek sustainable solutions for education, health, conservation, and development issues through international volunteering. We hope to achieve this goal by offering community orientated volunteer programs where the efforts of our volunteers go directly to the poor people and their communities. Many grass-root organizations working in developing countries are poor in resources. These organizations are doing a commendable job to address development, education, health, and conservation issues by launching a variety of programs but these organizations are in a great need of help and support. IFRE promotes these local organizations by making donations and sending volunteers.
