Cartagena Orphanage
Colombia Volunteer Placement
Options

- Internship
- Part-time volunteer

This non-profit orphanage provides a home to children up to 18 years old, many of whom have been forced out of their home due to malnutrition, abuse, drugs, and teen pregnancy. The ultimate aim of this organization is to eventually reunite the children with their families, through group therapy sessions. If not possible, the children are put into foster families instead.
As a volunteer, your tasks will be dependent upon your profession, academic background, and general experience dealing with children. You may be asked to teach English, play with the children, or assist with the psychology and nursing departments.
