Childcare in Brazil - Over 20,000 Happy Volunteers since 2003

Do you want to volunteer your time caring for and nurturing for children in need? In Brazil, there are many poverty-stricken communities, where the conditions of everyday life are unforgiving and dangerous. These poor families are struggling to take care of their children and provide them basic education. They are often caught between caring for their children at home and going to work. These poor children often grow up without the love of their parents and do not get a chance to live a carefree and happy childhood.

As a volunteer in this Childcare program, you will assist the local staffs by taking care of the children and providing them with love and care. You can teach English or other subjects to the children, educate them about important life skills or conduct fun activities for them like singing, dancing, or music, games. You can also assist with administration, maintenance and fundraising work of the childcare center. Your support towards low-income families will help them raise themselves and their children out of poverty and lead happy lives in the future by giving them a chance to go to work while you look after their children. Your dedication in this project will provide much needed care to the children in need and help prepare them for school. You will also gain wonderful memories with the children and a rewarding volunteer experience. There are no specific qualifications needed to join this project though having basic Portuguese skills will be helpful.
