About
Bamboo has opportunities to work in a range of programs in Costa Rica.
Turtle Conservation - Working with a local award-winning initiative, you will be involved in a variety of tasks that not only focus on the turtle population itself but also educating the local community and raising awareness on the importance of conserving the species.
Childcare - The role of our volunteers is to provide companionship to children who wouldn't otherwise receive the much deserved attention. Volunteers also work alongside local staff to help improve the educational, emotional and hygiene conditions of the children.
Teaching - This project focuses primarily on children of all ages who come to learn English, participate in games and cultural activities, and undertake health campaigns. Volunteers will therefore partake in teaching English as well as providing support for all activities.
- Accommodation with a local host family
- Daily support from our experienced team of coordinators
- Emerge yourself into the local culture
The turtle placements are located on Costa Rica’s Pacific and Caribbean coasts, according to the season, at different conservation beach areas. Most projects are located close to conveniences like internet cafes and volunteers can visit nearby beach towns during their free days. For those working on the non-turtle programs, volunteers will be based in and around San Jose.
