Volunteer at Sucre Orphanage in Bolivia

Program Description

Volunteer at Sucre Orphanage in Bolivia

Description

Our volunteers make a real contribution towards enriching the lives of orphans in the Sucre orphanage. The children are aged 2-16 years-old and have been abandoned. these children have been taken in off the streets in the hope of being adopted. Most children at the center have never had a "real" childhood or experienced loving, caring, or stable relationships.

- Volunteer work -

Volunteers are desperately needed to organize recreational activities for the children - such as painting, drawing, dances, music and sports. Volunteers will also assist in basic daily care of the children, including cooking, feeding, and cleaning.

Your assistance contributes towards building children's confidence and skills, from which they will benefit later on in life.

Highlights

This project is located in the beautiful and lively colonial city of Sucre; one of the principal cities in Bolivia.
