At Peru Volunteer and Travel we really want to make a change. That is why we have created the most affordable, fun and life-changing volunteer programs.
Wawawasi (House of Children in Quechua Language) is an amazing center for poor children full of energy and great hopes, The programs has meanly created to give children the opportunity to grow in a safe, clean and proper environment together with volunteers, teachers, parents, eager to make a change of these children's life, and give them a happy and well educated childhood.
Our Program focused on three main pillars; Education, respect and hope in order to help children with their growth and at the same time to provide volunteers with an amazing life changing experience.
Volunteers don't need special skills for this program, however; full energy and some patience are required. Volunteers will teach, feed, cloth, play and cook (sometimes) at the program.
Volunteer can organize extra activities like:
Children from 1 to 5 years old attend our program, where the mean goal is to teach children basic knowledge of colors, language, music, numbers and to grow in a safe, clean, proper environment feeling loving, caring and strong.

Volunteers will stay in a homestay where they will live with a local family. Volunteers can expect to share a room with one or two other. We highly recommend staying with a family; that way you will also learn the Peruvian way of life, meet local people, eat typical food, speak the language (Spanish) and engage in local customs and traditions.
Volunteers will be sharing bathroom and common areas with other volunteers and members of the family.
2 meals are included (breakfast and dinner). Volunteers can expect to experience a variety of flavors and meals during their experience as Peruvian food is diverse. We will be glad to let the family know if you have special eating needs. Please let us know ahead of time so that we can make arrangements for you.
Once you arrive in Cusco, please pick up your bags and then step out of the airport. Our PEVolunteer representative will be waiting for you there with a sign that has your name written on it.
