Over het programma

One of the objectives is to help and work with the aim of giving more personalised attention to the young people and children of the community so that they can broaden their knowledge and develop their skills.

Volunteers support the following activities with the children and young people who come to the centre. Some of these are:
  • Workshops on values
  • Basic education
  • Educational games
  • Help and care
Every volunteer must have the ability to empathize, as they work and live with children living in difficult situations or poverty. 
You can also teach English:
  • Teach English classes, where you will have to create dynamic and educational activities, which facilitate the learning of children and young people.
  • Assist the English teacher in classes.
  • Lead conversation groups or groups of local people who want to improve their English fluency.
  • Organise English classes. (in this activity you will be supported by the local coordinator).
  • Basic teaching of any subject, talks and initiatives.
The volunteer is not required to be an expert or have a specialism in the field of education or childcare, just a desire to help is more than welcome.

Once finished we will have lunch at the centre, we will have some time to rest, take a nap or go to the swimming pool of the volunteer's house. Then you can be with animals and companions or decide to go shopping.


Volunteers usually start their support at 9:00 in the morning and finish around 1:00 in the afternoon.

Support in the cooperation and creation of social and environmental projects in communities at risk of social exclusion, through international volunteering.

Ontmoet je organisatie


ADVENTURE VOLUNTEER is a non-profit organization, established in 2017. We collaborate in the social and environmental field through projects of conservation and protection of the environment and animals, as well as in the social part through projects of empowerment of women, community development, functional diversity, medical or teaching.


Our team of collaborators has a deep experience in international volunteer programs.  We know all the realities of the areas where we are working, collaborating and where we have a presence. 


Our projects offer volunteers the opportunity to meet, share and participate in social and environmental projects. These projects demand educational and recreational activities that benefit communities of different cultures and customs, communities with economic difficulties and different degrees of social exclusion.

If we were to pay for a taxi ...
