Volunteer abroad in Rio de Janeiro and experience the 'cidade maravilhosa' with its popular Copacabana, Cristo Redentor on Mount Corovado & colorful carnival celebrations. The flourishing South American metropolis is a dream destination for adventure travelers. However, as Brazil's second largest city, Rio de Janeiro suffers from the effects of crime and poverty in the favela communities, making it a city that benefits from your volunteer work.

As an international volunteer in Rio de Janeiro, you assist with teaching efforts at local schools, provide kids with after-school activities and support community development initiatives such as construction, souvenir making & urban gardening.
