Sobre el programa

Some volunteer duties include:

Help create popular education workshops about the environment or hygiene for those who participate in our clean water program.

Translate documents such as: results, testimonies etc for donors or publicity.   
Help teach people how to install and use their filters.  
Discuss with program participants them how their life was changed, how eating habits and hygiene are also important in order to evaluate the program. Take pictures to document work done by grassroots workers. Monitor clean water committees which function in each community and work together for more efficient and effective community organization.
As a bilingual volunteer, you will be the principal link between the grassroots workers and program beneficiaries and donors.

The CIS water program has two different parts.  
One distributing Sawyer water filters to families in organized communities.  Each family must pay for the plastic tubs to be used for the water, but the filter is given free.  Training is provided for health and sanitation and how to use, clean and maintain the filters.  Many families report having better health and attendance at school/work due to better access to clean water.

The second half is working with Clean Water for the World and installing water purification systems in places such as rural health clinics and schools.  This system not only provides clean water for students or clients of the clinic, but also has a tap for public consumption and people can carry water back to their homes.  One health clinic had such positive results they reported that they had more time and economic resources to devote to different problems because the amount of water-borne illnesses had dropped so dramatically.

El Salvador is a beautiful country with many attractions close by. The CIS employees and homestay families are both happy to help you find things to do in your spare time that interest you most. Some of the highlights include: The 'Ruta de las Flores' or the flower route, which is located in a mountainous coffee area and is known for hikes, waterfalls and crafts. The beaches of La Libertad: A string of beaches about an hour away from San Salvador, known for surfing and tourism. El Tunco beach specifically is a hotspot for nightlife and surf lessons El Boqueron is a volcano on the edge of San Salvador with a place to walk near the top of the crater and has great views. On the way up the volcano, there are many beautiful restaurants with great views and also an eco-park for nature walks. Volcanoes Santa Ana and Izalco are great hikes. They are in the same area and hikes leave from the same park. Izalco is a steep uphill climb on gravel, and Santa Ana has a breathtaking view of a turquoise sulfur lake from the top. In addition to these, there are many beautiful other places. Some people even zip over to Guatemala for the weekend!

In the US, I teach English to adult immigrants in a couple of settings. One is at a community college, where the context is academic ESL. The other is at a community agency where the focus of the curriculum is survival/acculturation. I was looking for a way to try teaching abroad, and my preference ...

I am so thankful for the opportunity to volunteer with CIS. The work they do extends beyond the English classroom and covers different areas all across El Salvador. I have learned so much about solidarity and about the country. I feel CIS has become a second home and a second ...
Teaching English and Social Justice at the CIS is a great way to spend time in El Salvador and provides a great oppotunity to learn Spanish. I had taught some English before as a volunteer, but I appreciated the training and experience. The students became my friends and class involved discussing ...
I can’t remember exactly how I found CIS’ website. I was studying at university at home in the UK, and looking for a chance to be involved in language learning. There is no shortage of specially arranged programmes to students- companies promising to arrange all sorts of experiences in all kinds ...
