About Program
Ecuador is definitely the best place to visit today. It's not just because of the natural beauty of its four regions (the Amazon, the Andes mountains, the Pacific coast and Galapagos), but also because of the phenomenal service learning opportunities you will find in our listed programs. Bring your enthusiasm and lend a hand to these grassroots projects working toward improving livelihoods of the communities, the environment or the exotic wildlife of this region.
We divided our programs in four areas:
Education: Teach English in Quito and make a make a difference in the lives of young children.
Conservation: Work in conservation projects in any of the biological stations or permaculture farms across the country.
Animal rescue: Help at a sanctuary with the rescue and rehabilitation efforts for Amazon species victims of illegal trafficking.
Social development: Join local community efforts to bring progress and education to struggling low-income families in Quito.
Consider your impact: Volunteering abroad can be a rewarding experience for both volunteers and local communities, and at Go Overseas, we believe all volunteers should have the resources to make informed decisions about the type of volunteer project they want to partake in. However, despite best intentions, some organizations offering placements in orphanages may unknowingly place children in danger. You can read about the potential dangers of orphanage volunteering here.
