je suis actuellement à la recherche d'un volontariat à Cusco.
Je reviens de quatre mois en Amérique Latine, et je veux profiter de la fin de mon année sabbatique (i.e quatre mois) pour faire un stage ou un bénévolat à Cusco.
Quelqu'un aurait-il une adresse d'ONG ou association directement sur place, pour éviter de passer par des programmes européens (frais de dossier etc...)
Bonjour Sophie,
L'adresse d'une maison d'enfants située à Urubamba (département de Cusco) qui accueille des volontaires (surtout italiens!) pour aider au fonctionnement de la maison: www.mosoqruna.org . En italien, espagnol et anglais.
Je connais aussi un prêtre genevois qui s'occupe d'un foyer d'enfants et ados à Puerto Maldonado: Père Xavier Arbex, xarbex@viabcp.com
Je ne te garantis rien.
Bonne chance
Michel
Merci infiniment pour ces informations.
Je vais me renseigner immédiatement.
Bon le mieux pour moi serait quelques chose directement à Cusco, mais bon... Je pense qu'en étant aussi exigeante je ne vais rien trouver.
A propos je suis déjà allée en Equateur si vous avaz besoin d'informations. J'ai effectivement vu que vous y partiez en juillet 2007.
Hola amigo!
Saches que si tu es à Cusco et que tu te présentes au restaurant Papillon à la plaza Armas tu trouveras une annonce pour venir oeuvrer à Paruro. Demander un complément d´infos à Marco.
Cette localité se trouve à 2h00 de Cusco sans aucun touriste.
Je te donne mon adresse msn: fildeferre@hotmail.com
Je viens d´ouvrir un centre Alcooliques Anonymes et je cherche tout un paquet de volontaires sérieux, randonneur, aimable pouvant subvenir à leur frais (nourriture 2 soles, loyer 50 soles par mois, transport 5 soles), le reste je m´en charge.
Attention je dis bien sérieux car c´est un projet ambitieux.
Mardi je pars pour la bolivie pour la validation de mon visa et faire le point de la situation. Je serai de retour pour continuer ce projet bien avancé dans une dizaine de jours.
Tu verras tu ne le regretteras pas, je te le promets.
Bruno el gringo.
je travaille actuellement au pérou, a Ayacucho. Je connais l'association "puririsun", caminar juntos en quechua, projet de soutien à des enfants en difficulté à Cusco. Un très bon ami à moi y a fait un volontariat pendant près de 5 mois et a ensuite constitué son association - elpuente - en Belgique pour soutenir ce projet. Il s'appelle Philippe, son adresse est: foekie22@hotmail.com, il est néérlandophone mais parlant bien le français et l'espagnol. Le site internet de son association est: www.alpuente.be. N'hésite pas!!
je suis aussi a cusco pour un benevolat de un mois et je connais aussi Julien qui t as repondu.. le monde est petit!
bref, je suis dans une casa hogar dans Cusco meme et je sais qu il accueille des volontaires sans exigences particulieres. pour l instant je suis seule. il s agit de faire faire leur devoir aux enfants et de faire des jeux avec eux. Je sais pas si ca t interesse mais si oui, fais moi signe et je te donne l adresse. voila mon mail : sego_gobet@yahoo.fr

My question might seem a bit out of place in a "travel" forum, but I’m giving it a shot anyway.
I’m thinking about sponsoring a child in Vietnam.
After some online research, I’ve found a lot of organizations that offer this, but I’m struggling to make a choice.
Could anyone guide me in making my decision?
Thanks in advance and have a great day.

I’m a volunteer leader at a youth center (MJC), and we’ve been deeply moved by everything happening in Madagascar—extreme poverty, endangered animals, deforestation, and so on. Plus, one of our teens has a Malagasy friend, so our group wants to travel there next year.
Throughout this year, they’ve planned fundraisers to collect donations (sheets, dish towels, schoolbooks, hygiene products, etc.) and funds to cover their trip and stay.
They’re really motivated and generous—they already volunteer in schools and senior centers, and they’re always welcomed warmly.
But so far, they haven’t found any organizations in Madagascar willing to host them for two weeks (orphanages, schools, animal protection parks, etc.).
Does anyone know of any contacts, please?
Looking forward to your replies. Have a great evening!
After 8 months of volunteering in Tanzania at a center for street children, I’d like to go back for a year in the same kind of role—this time in Burkina. So I’m looking for contacts in this field, in Ouaga or elsewhere. I’m *super* motivated! It’s been over two years since I got back from Tanzania, and I’m starting to feel restless!
Thanks so much!!
Emmanuelle.
Solidafrica is a recognized humanitarian association of general interest. We donate wheelchairs in Africa. We currently have 2 wheelchairs that we would like to give to our partner, the Benin Handisport Federation. If you're traveling to Benin, alone or with someone, we could give you one of these 2 wheelchairs (or both). Out of the 40 kg of luggage you're allowed, a wheelchair will only take up less than half. Our partner can pick it up at Cotonou Airport...
Help us give away at least one of these wheelchairs, turning your trip into a solidarity and humanitarian action.
Don't hesitate to ask us for more information.

We've already done this through the VoyageForum site, and everything went very smoothly. We're present at departure from one of the Paris airports, just in case.
Hi,
I’m interested in humanitarian missions—want to explore and help others while showing my kids how things work elsewhere and pitching in.
Looking for advice.
Hello, we’d like to travel as a family to Madagascar (2 parents, 2 kids aged 10 and 12). A first trip over 15 years ago completely amazed and moved me with its beauty, kindness, and life experiences—but also its poverty and hardship. That’s why I think it’s possible to introduce our kids to this island while also doing something useful through volunteering. The window is short—15 days in March 2020—which means avoiding the north and east of the island due to cyclones and focusing on the south instead. Some ecovolunteering projects exist online, but the cost is sometimes prohibitive, and kids are rarely accepted. Do you have any ideas or contacts? Thanks in advance!
