How long has IFRE been working in Peru ? Whom do you work with? Where are you located? What are IFRE's programs?
In Peru we have been running our volunteer programs for nearly two years. We are presently focusing on 4 major volunteer service projects in Peru like volunteering with children, teaching English, Health Care and women's development. IFRE works with many local NGO's, orphanages, and community projects to offer meaningful plac em ent for our volunteers. Volunteers commit around thirty hours each week to their project. Most facilities are very basic this includes the health care clinics but the work is rewarding and the experience is unforgettable.
We work in association with a successful Language School located in Cusco , Peru where we offer optional programs from basic to intense Spanish Language courses. Our partners at the language school help us coordinate with the local organizations to arrange customized plac em ents. Cusco is a beautiful city and our knowledgeable, kind staff helps our volunteers discover its secrets during their programs. We have established families that offer home stays to all our Peru participants where they gain cultural insight as well as full immersion Spanish.
The mission of IFRE Volunteers is to offer the most affordable as well as the highest quality volunteer and humanitarian abroad experiences - enabling us to make a contribution for all of humanity in its quest to make the world a better place. Through our volunteer and humanitarian trips abroad, we aim to spread love and compassion worldwide while improving the lives of destitute children and less-fortunate communities. We at IFRE also seek sustainable solutions in the fields of education, healthcare, conservation efforts and development issues through international volunteering.
