About Program
Apart from donations, Mayan Families relies heavily on the time and skills of talented individuals who volunteer with us. Unlike many other charitable organizations, we do not charge our volunteers to come and work with us.
We are always looking for skilled people with a desire to work with a hands-on organization. Mayan Families is fortunate to have dedicated volunteers who play many important roles and contribute to the organization's success.
You can volunteer with us from anywhere in the world to:
- Organize fundraising house parties
- Translate between English and Spanish (documents and our website)
- Spread the word about Mayan Families (social media, speaking opportunities/presentations)
- Raise funds for our various projects through local events
- Web work (updates, postings, uploading photos, blogging, etc.)
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.
