We are now able to offer new opportunities of volunteering in China, in the province of Si Chuan. You will be able to teach English in kinder gardens, primary, secondary and high schools and also to help in summer camps and centres for children with special needs.

The city of Mianyang, where the volunteering projects are going to take place, was seriously hit by an earthquake in 2008 that killed 90.000 people and destroyed many schools.

Volunteering there has therefore a special meaning, as it would help people to find new confidence and hope for their future.

Katie Mahon from Co Wexford volunteered in Chile for 10 weeks in a center caring for girls from a disadvantaged background in the town of Temuco. She wrote on her experience just a few days after having left the center.

I've finished my volunteer placement and I was broken hearted leaving the Hogar in Temuco!!! Felt like the time went so so quickly, and it was so hard saying goodbye to all the girls and everyone working there knowing that I wouldn't see them the following day, or week or month........... it was like having another family!!! I can't believe how welcomed I was, how much everybody made an effort to make me feel a part of the whole group, and how much the Tias appreciated any bit of help they received.
