About Program
Bamboo currently has opportunities to work on a childcare project in Guatemala.
While a beautiful culture with stunning surroundings, there are a range of community centres and orphanages that are poorly resourced and in need of attention. Many children at these centres are affected by a poor lifestyle at home with little or no education.
Our partner works alongside the centres in these impoverished communities to ensure the basic needs are met for the children and that they are being given the much needed love and attention through assigning incoming volunteers to projects depending on the need at the time.
Without the help of volunteers like you, these children may not receive the basic needs to empower them for a brighter future.
Your role is central to the project as you will be working alongside local staff to improve the educational, emotional and hygiene conditions of the children. These children require a lot of care, attention and most importantly, companionship.
Hi Michelle, According to the GVN website- "You must be 18 years or older to volunteer. There is no upper limit for volunteers; we only require that volunteers are in good health. Under 18's wishing to volunteer with an adult will be considered on a case-by-case basis."
