Everything you need to know

We need you!

The children in our orphanages love having short-term volunteers. It’s exciting for them to know that someone traveled so far to spend time with them. You can make a difference in just a few weeks.

Where will I live?

In both Quito and Cuenca, you’ll live with fellow volunteers in safe, secure housing located on the same property as an orphanage. There are separate areas for single women, single men, and families.

The housing comes with Wi-Fi, a stocked kitchen, clean drinking water, and plenty of supplies to plan activities for the children.

When should I apply?

Spots for short-term volunteers fill up fast, so sign up early to secure yours!

Will I need a visa?

No visa is needed unless you plan to stay in Ecuador for more than 90 days.

Is Spanish required?

No, Spanish is not required. You may face some language barriers if you don’t speak Spanish, but you’ll still have an amazing experience. You will quickly discover that love and kindness are universal languages.
