Join our inspirational volunteer project in the city of Sao Paulo. You can really make a difference to children’s lives by being a positive influence and encouraging learning or sports activity.
The highly regarded youth centre provides a vital support base for hundreds of young people, and offers them the chance to pursue extra curricular activities which their school does not. As a volunteer, the program gives you flexibility. You can teach anything you are passionate about. Past volunteers have taught English, volley ball, belly dancing and even sushi making!
While you volunteer, you can also take our optional 1 to 1 Portuguese lessons to help you develop your language skills!
