🏢 About the local organisation
This organization´s main aim is to accompany children in their grow-up process and to help them be protagonist of their own life.
The project takes place in a “conventillo” in the neighborhood of La Boca. There they receive “merienda” (milk and cookies) and dinner. They also receive school support when there are enough volunteers to attend them.
💼 What the programme involves
Volunteers will work together with another volunteer in a pedagogical duo, they provide school support to kids as one of the most important activities. These children don´t have the support from their families and we ask volunteers to help them to study and to focus on these issues.
Volunteers will have weekly meetings to discuss various topics in order to understand and complement their social intervention as volunteers. Besides, we aim to provide them with a complete social, historical, political and economic background.
There will be solidarity activities planned for all the volunteers to have common inter-exchanges, like festivals, workshops in schools, etc.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Volunteers are hosted in the intercultural volunteer house with a capacity of up to 14 volunteers, kitchen, shared bathrooms, wi fi, shared rooms. It is located in Avellaneda, Buenos Aires.
Volunteers have lunch at the project. They should be flexible to eat local food. Besides, we will provide them ingredients for cooking in the house. Be prepared to live in a communitarian environment!
