The Experience
Tenemos una parcela de 120 metros cuadrados que está destinada a construir el albergue de los niños de la Asociación Cusimaky. Actualmente pagamos un alquiler de 210€ cada mes para tener un espacio para trabajar con los niños y niñas que asisten al proyecto educativo Cusimaky. Por este motivo anhelamos tener un lugar propio y sobre todo seguro para siempre tener las puertas abiertas para los niños.

I only spent five sessions with the children and we started learning some basic English together. I think the program would benefit from some more structured English resources and I will look at sourcing those for the program when I return home to Australia.

Volunteering with the project was an inspiring and rewarding experience. Teaching English to the children, who are eager to learn and full of energy, felt truly impactful - especially knowing how valuable English is in a touristic city like Cusco. The classes are well-organized, and the local team is welcoming and passionate. The small daily fee goes directly to supporting the project and providing materials, which makes a real difference. Highly recommend for anyone looking to contribute meaningfully while experiencing local culture.

The project is an amazing project that puts the children first. The role of the volunteer is to help with homework, be creative when preparing activities for the children, and create an environment where the children can have fun and be supported and happy. The camaraderie between others volunteers is also amazing since we all worked together with these goals in mind. Another plus is that you will be staying very close to Cusco city so will be able to explore in the mornings and weekends. I would 100% recommend this experience and cannot wait to return to Cusco and spend more time with the project.

I loved my experience at the project. If you are looking for an authentic experience in Cusco and immersing yourself with the locals in a special and unique way this is the place for you. Lucy, the lady who helps run the project was extremely welcoming the day I arrived and Yennifer was very helpful and easy to communicate with. Connecting with the kids and helping them with their homework was actually quite enjoyable and I also recommend bringing your talents and getting involved in sharing activities with them. On Friday we go to the park and had the opportunity to teach the kids how to skate!

Mi tiempo en Cusco ha sido mágico gracias a mi experiencia en el proyeto. Los niños, aunque traviesos, son encantadores, y la ayuda de los voluntarios es realmente necesaria. Cuismaky logra un impacto verdadero en la comunidad y en la vida de los niños. Además, el alojamiento es comodísimo y Lucy está siempre aquí para ayudar, cuando enfermé fue quien cuidó de mí 😊 San Jerónimo está a 45 minutos del centro histórico, lo que lo convierte en un barrio perfecto para los que prefieran autenticidad y tranquilidad (¡y el mercado de al lado es increíble!). Gracias por ser mi segundo hogar en Perú ♥
