Volunteer at an Orphanage in Ecuador

We have orphanages throughout Ecuador where you can volunteer. The most valuable activity sought by orphanages is for Volunteers to teach English to the kids. Books can often be scarce at orphanages, especially in rural areas, but the staff usually can provide you with a standard lesson book to follow.

Depending on your own skills and interests, though, you can also teach songs, music, dance, cooking, or any number of activities, and generally just spend quality time with the children.

Most orphanages also welcome assistance from Volunteers for the organizations themselves. This involves working with staff to develop marketing, fundraising, and program strategies for the orphanages.
