Senderos can offer a variety of meaningful opportunities for motivated, creative, and responsible individuals to collaborate either in the US or in Guatemala with our many partners. The director of Senderos lives in Santiago, Atitlan, and will coordinate volunteer visits to Guatemala. Volunteers are self-funded and the cost varies according to the desired standard of accommodations, food, etc. In-country expenses of staying and eating with a host family start at $25/day, staying in a private home and cooking your own food starts at $65/day.
Potential volunteer experiences in Guatemala include:
- Sharing a skill with students such as art, science, nature, music, etc.
- Helping with a school construction project
- Participating in a Traveling Library and reading books with local schoolchildren
- Gardening
- Teaching English
