Colombia Kids - Ethical volunteering with a UK Charity
The Colombia Kids project is based in the Andes mountain range in the vibrant city of Medellin. The project includes an outreach programme for the street children, free education programme and day centres. The project focuses on the young and vulnerable to assist them in finding a way out of the trap of poverty.

Volunteer duties: The children are provided with English classes, lessons in Spanish, arts, music, sports and various vocational training. Most of the children at this project would otherwise spend their days on the streets so all skills to keep the children entertained and happy are welcome.
