We recommend that volunteers take advantage of the very affordable language lessons offered exclusively by Peruvian Highland Trek volunteers and our staff in Cusco. Past volunteers feel that taking these lessons help immensely with day-to-day volunteer work and communicating with local people. Volunteers interested in taking Spanish lessons can arrange these directly with the local staff once in Cusco.
The positive initiatives and impact made by NGOs are often limited by their financial and staffing resources, particularly in developing countries. Volunteers’ experience and contributions help to further the organizations’ goals and broadens their reach in the community. Volunteers may take on a range of tasks which include, but are not limited to, general administration, grant writing, research, fundraising and teaching English.
Community Development projects offer a variety of opportunities for international volunteers that are often unique to the location they are set in but the shared purpose is to improve the circumstances of local communities. The work is often quite mixed and requires initiative to get projects off the ground as well as interaction with different groups of people.
“It was the best trip I’ve ever taken! Experiencing the longest Zip Line, seeing historic Cusco and volunteering at the Kindness Center was wonderful.”
