    Über das Programm

    Program Description
    Volunteers at a Samana daycare center create a meaningful impact on children's lives, even with basic Spanish skills! This rewarding role involves interacting with children and guiding their growth. Duties include assisting a supervisor and promoting early childhood development (ECD) through play-based learning. ECD focuses on emotional, social, language, cognitive, physical, and motor skill development. It helps close the achievement gap between low and high-income students before formal schooling begins. (Children of low socioeconomic status (SES) often start school behind their higher SES peers.)

    Volunteer placement or internship

    If you're joining as an intern, we understand that your school or university may have specific requirements. Please inform us in advance about your internship criteria, enabling us to tailor a personalized work plan to suit your needs. Share your expectations and goals with us, and we'll work together to ensure you achieve them. We are happy to give students academic credit or provide a report outlining the learning outcomes and deliverables achieved during the internship.

    Requirements
    No previous experience or special skills are required. Basic Spanish skills are required but there are many activities where little Spanish is needed and even beginners can be involved with meaningful work. Additionally we offer free Spanish language classes on a regular basis! Enthusiasm, self-reliance, patience, and an open mind are essential. All ages and backgrounds are welcome. We provide full support, and 24/7 backup. Ideal volunteer is proactive, result-focused, patient, and can work autonomously with supervision. Bring arts & crafts materials. Join us to make a positive impact!
