PERU / Global Vision International
This volunteer program takes you to teach children in the ‘pueblos jovenes’ (or ‘young towns’), located in the stunning southwestern region around Arequipa, Peru. Volunteers joining this program will be working with children from kindergarten through initial primary school levels and will be typically working with children from the ages of 4 and upwards. Volunteers placed with younger children will be helping them master all the classroom basics from holding a pencil and drawing drawing lines to their first letters and numbers.
Staying with a local family in the colonial town of Arequipa, you can explore this beautiful area, partaking in weekend adventure activities such as an excursion to the Colca Canyon, mountain biking and horseback riding. College credit may be available for those attending this project. Consult GVI’s college credit page for helpful tips and advice.
