Descrição
We are a grassroots non-profit organization providing aid to Venezuelan refugees (caminantes) and to the local community in Pamplona. We work with shelters along the caminantes' route providing mobile aid, food, and information to Venezuelans. We also support community projects in order to meet the needs of vulnerable people in Pamplona. Some of the project are in partnership with local foundations.
We are in Colombia in response to a crisis. As the situation is often in flux, we have taken on a variety of projects as they have arisen. Every day is different and requires flexibility as tasks may vary. Day to day responsibilities are organized by international coordinators. We are looking for volunteers to keep all our projects running - we require a minimum of three weeks stay. Our team is made up of 10/15 international volunteers and Colombian/Venezuelan staff.
Pamplona is a lovely university town, nestled in the mountains; it has a young energetic vibe, and is very safe. There are lots of cute little cafes in the center, and some hiking in the surrounding mountains.

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
As you are working with caminantes, the work can be emotionally challenging. You will see difficult situations first hand. But, you get to be part of a close knit team that is helping people, which is very rewarding. You will be working with people who do not speak English, so Spanish language skills are very useful, but not essential.

Ajuda
Every day is busy. Volunteers participate in a variety of activities, which often start early in the morning and end late in the evening. In total, we expect volunteers to work 4-5 hours daily.
In shelters for Venezuelan migrants, volunteers help to clean, cook, serve meals, lead activities with kids, and run a first aid clinic. Volunteers also accompany mobile aid trips, distributing food and supplies to migrants who are walking along the highway.
Alongside projects that serve the migrant population, volunteers participate in a variety of community projects. These include English lessons, creative workshops, and nutrition programmes in community centers in Pamplona’s vulnerable neighborhoods.
We encourage volunteers to apply their skills and experiences to the projects. Teaching experience and creative skills are valuable assets for community projects. In the shelters, we particularly need volunteers with medical training to help run our first aid clinic. A working knowledge of Spanish is helpful but not a requirement. Overall, we encourage anyone who is interested in our projects to apply!

Acomodação
We have a volunteer house with six bedrooms and 2-4 beds in each room. There is internet and laundry in the house, two fully-equipped kitchens, and 2 1/2 bathrooms. We also have a rooftop where you can work out or relax. We receive groceries for the house once a week. Food is shared, but volunteers are responsible for cooking their own meals.
Volunteers need to cover the cost of their rent and food, which is roughly 32,000 COP per night (about 7-8 USD). Payments are collected at the end of every month or at the end of your stay.
Additionally, we have a second house available for groups or families. There is an additional cost associated with that house, and it is not always available, but you can check in with us. That house has three bedrooms and beds for 5-6 people.
Algo mais...
I first began refugee work in Lebanon in 2016, and have also spent time on Lesvos, a Greek island with thousands of refugees. The situation in Colombia is dire and has received very little international aid. We are doing everything we can to raise awareness and bring support to the desperate Venezuelan population that is fleeing their country.

Cesar left far too soon!
We absolutely love this guy and wish he could've stayed longer!
He embraced the work here and became such an important part of the team. He carried the projects well and had a fiery passion for helping the Venezuelan Caminantes at the shelters, on mobile aid, and everywhere really.

I left a part of my heart with the organization. Honestly, I can't say enough wonderful things about this organization. Whether it was waking up early to go to aid tent, making sandwiches in the morning, doing up or down trips with the local drivers handing out food/socks/etc. to the caminantes, or spending nights in the shelters making arepas,… read more

Catherine is an incredible young woman!
Highly ambitious and up for all challenges, she was always eager to be as involved as she could, to learn as much as she could. Regardless of how uncomfortable the work could get, this fearless girl always went in full force.

I stayed 2 weeks in Pamplona, volunteering here. The communication was wery good. Everything is well explained in advance and the arrival was even under my conditions super easy. My arrival time changed three times. In the end I arrived at 3 o'clock in the night and I was even then welcomed. The work is definitely more than 5 hous a day, but that… read more

I stayed 2 weeks in Pamplona, volunteering. It was one of the greatest travel experiences. I was giving food and sanitising supplies for “caminantes” on the way from Pamplona to Cucuta and Bucaramanga, preparing snacks for them, cleaning and medicating refugees feet. Also I visited 4 shelters. People I met are kind, positive minded, humble and… read more

We had a great experience, where we stayed for about 5 weeks. It was one of the most fulfilling and rewarding experiences we had in Colombia and likely, in our whole lives too! The work is more like normal volunteering and less like workawaying...definitely more than 5 hours a day, 6 days a week, and the food/accommodation is not included (though… read more
