AmeriSpan offers Volunteer placements in Venezuela
VENEZUELA is located on the northern coast of South America and enjoys a tropical climate year-round attracting tourists from all over the world, but especially from Germany, Italy, Spain and North America. About half the country is forest, including rainforest. Venezuela boasts countless paradise-like islands along its nearly 1,800 miles of coastline. In addition, the country has a well-developed infrastructure, 35 national parks, and Angel Falls, the world's highest waterfall.
You can volunteer in either beautiful colonial Merida in the foothills of the Andes, or right at the beach at Caribbean Playa Colorada. Social and Educational projects include a project for street children and a school for indigenous children. There are also several environmentally-themed projects, such as the Zoo in Merida or the Marine Conservation project. You can even rebuild a high school together with locals. Many of the projects in Venezuela are programs where international volunteers work side-by-side with local volunteers. This will do wonders for your Spanish language development and your understanding of Venezuela.
