Volunteer
Volunteering is a great way to experience another culture, make new friends and learn new skills.
The beauty in volunteering lies in the fact that you are not simply
passing through as a tourist. You are interacting with the
community, building relationships and making a positive impact.
It is an experience that may well change your life!
Why Venezuela needs
volunteers?
Volunteers are the driving force of Peace
Villages' work, both through their volunteering and through
their financial contributions. We have various programs
currently underway and run by volunteers, as well as the
long term expectation of opening a large multi-faceted
Therapy Center. Volunteers, through their donations and
through volunteer work done on the Foundations grounds are helping us to create this center
(see our spending breakdown for more information on where your money goes).
We encourage volunteers to form schedules which work for them, and to work in any
combination of programs. Volunteers decide how many hours they want
to work. We recommend a minimum of 4 hours daily for 4 days a week.
You may work as much as 6 days and as many hours you wish. We
emphasize that we focus on excellence and not on quantity!
