"Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." Howard Thurman
Proyecto Peru offers a volunteer programme for those participants who complete a minimum of 1 week of Spanish and want to work in different areas around Cusco. Volunteers need to be available for at least 4 weeks and the required level of Spanish depends on the project you choose.
Volunteers in Proyecto Peru have a chance to learn a new language, live in another culture, develop career and leadership skills and create a better world.
Proyecto Peru considers how to use cultural diversity and communications as effectively as possible in the volunteer programmes.
Through volunteering, you give and you receive. The chance to make a real difference in other people's lives is the reason most volunteers choose Proyecto Peru. The centre simply offers a place for people to contribute to positive change by cultivating the spirit of service in their lives.
We offer volunteering projects for:
Workshops
Workshops will be given to volunteers by specialized teachers to train them for their volunteer work projects (dental hygiene, painting, how to teach, etc.)
Volunteer Monitoring
Throughout the project, the coordinator will help volunteers by regularly visiting them and monitoring their progress. We are always willing to support volunteers by answering questions and providing the best advice on fundraising and other issues such as health, culture, excursions, safety, travel and special events.
