Care For The Homeless

The Project

Santiago is known as one of the most modern cities in South America. Even though parts of the population in Chile are extremely wealthy, a significant portion still live in poverty or are homeless. This organization aims to improve the lives of impoverished or homeless people through big and small contributions each day. 

As a volunteer, you will be support a Chilean organization, which is dedicated to helping people who live on the streets of Chile. The charity was founded in 1977, and it runs a total of five projects that all try to combat poverty in the area. Through this project that helps the homeless, nearly 100 people are cared for, many of which have lived for many years without a roof over their head. 

Your Tasks

To be volunteer for this project, no special skills required, but you should be a dedicated individual that is able to take on responsibilities and work independently. You will interact with people who live very difficult lives in circumstances that you cannot imagine. 

On a daily basis, your tasks may include: Creating and updating the list that tracks the homeless, assisting workers with daily walks, and making contact with homeless people.

The city of Santiago has a wide range of activities for our volunteers to enjoy, such as a variety of different shopping malls with both national and international brands. In addition, there are many cultural actvities going on in Santiago year-round. For nature-lover, Santiago offers plenty of opportunities for day excursiones to explore the amazing Andes mountains, the countryside and the beaches at the Pacific Coast. You can enjoy activities like hiking, climbing, trekking, rafting, horseback riding, relaxing on the beach, and so on.
