I would choose the foundation every time. I have learned so much about sustainability- how to work with the resources you have to create what you need. I adored working in the garden, as well as any & all interactions with the students (who are absolutely precious). Martin is a wonderful host with a really big, true, heart for what he does. I am in awe of how much of a safe haven this foundation is for all who it serves. The heart and love in this place, I will hold with me on my travels onwards. I feel lucky to have experienced the foundation. Thank you Martin.

I chose this experience for my first volunteer and I couldn't have done it better! Since the moment I arrived until the moment I left, I felt so welcomed by everyone! I met great people, the teachers were very kind, the students are very friendly and nice and being there made me feel like part of something great. I only regret not staying for more days! The tasks were not complicated and you can help in many ways. No olvidaré nada de lo que pasé en esta the project! Viví momentos lindos y fui muy feliz en esta experiencia. Gracias por todo!

I enjoyed my (too short) stay at the foundation so much. Martin is an incredible host and the work that everyone puts in at the foundation is inspiring. Everyone is so kind and friendly. You can see the benefit everyone gets from the place, and within a few days I felt at home - even with the language barrier! The volunteer work is fun and varied, there is food to cook for yourself and the weekday lunches by the cooks are delicious! Martin makes sure you get to see the area and experience some of the culture (asados!). Some things are basic but really, its an amazing place. Thank you so much!

⭐️ Highly recommended project with direct positive impact on the local community with fun included ⭐️ I really enjoyed my time at the foundation and could contribute a lot, with working in the garden and taking care of the animals, doing activities together with the teachers and kids (gardening, sports, etc.) or helping in the kitchen. The atmosphere under the kids, the staff and volunteers was really good despite being in one of the poorest regions of Mendoza. FYI: This comment is written in English but some Spanish skills are recommended to enjoy the time at the foundation at its fullest.

My time at the Foundation changed my life. I have greater empathy, patience, and a deeper understanding of what is important because of volunteering here. Martin and his family are providing a level of support that most families in the area don't have access to. It was a privilege to be a part of for a short while. Things to consider - You must be willing to be a bit uncomfortable, you will be living in a small space with many others. Budget for extra groceries and transportation. You must be able to work without constant direction and help without being asked. Gracias y abrazos. :)
