How can I help as a volunteer in Mexico?

You can help the people of Mexico by volunteering for social causes. Volunteers can help an orphanage, teach english to children, or help improve local schools. Some volunteers help build schools, education centers or even homes after disasters. Volunteering in Mexico is also a good opportunity to learn Spanish! Mexico is a very diverse country – biologically, ethnically, linguistically, and culturally – so you can make the best out of a volunteer period in Mexico by learning from the locals.

Is it possible to volunteer for a short term in Mexico?

Short term volunteering in Mexico could be a nice way to help the country without spending much. You can visit Chichén Itza archeological site or the second-largest city on the planet: Mexico City. Both in cities and rural communities, mexican children would love to learn a new language from a native, learn sports, arts or crafts from a different new volunteer from a far away country! Combine traveling and social work and help make the world a better place.
