What Are Volunteers Saying About ABV?| Volunteer Programs |
Volunteer with orphan children and street kids by assisting them with daily care, including feeding babies, teaching English, playing games, teaching songs, reading activities, creating arts & crafts projects and sharing your affection and attention with these wonderful children.
Support HIV/AIDS organizations working in rural communities promoting health education, prevention, awareness and care. Volunteers work with grassroots local organizations that provide HIV/AIDS education and support to rural communities. The project is to advocate for women, children and families in the fight against preventable diseases as well as mobilizing communities, strengthening their capacity and using their own resources for acceptable and sustainable projects.
Work in kindergarten, primary or secondary schools primarily assisting the local staff with teaching English, math, science, geography and vocational skills such as carpentry, electronics and computer training. A TEFL certificate is not required.
Health care volunteer placements are open to medical professionals including doctors, dentists, nurses and EMT's, with hands-on and observation work available in rural clinics and community hospitals. This program is also open to nursing and medical students in all medical fields. Medical volunteers must submit a copy of their credentials or nursing certificate, or university/medical school letter verifying enrollment.
Support women empowerment projects in the community; volunteers are also needed for manual labor jobs working along side skilled and unskilled local workers. Some tasks include building a children's playground or footbridge, painting, and renovation work at the school and farming programs.
Volunteer abroad in a National Park helping tortoises or other wildlife. The main objective of this project is to rehabilitate the animals and reincorporate them back into their natural habitat. Volunteers will feed animals, clean and repair cages and improve the existing facilities.
Fully immerse yourself in a new culture and learn Spanish. This program will focus on conversation practice, grammar, readings and the vocabulary according to the student level and needs.
