  Passionate Individuals Wanted to Make a Difference! 🌍💙
  The foundation aims to break cycles of poverty, abuse and inequality; providing opportunities for every child and youth that we care for to succeed. Through long-term solutions like education, practical and emotional care and community development, we provide tools and opportunities for children and youth to advance in every aspect of their lives, becoming the best that they can be. Our core focuses are; education and extracurricular activities; safe homes with a family environment; health and wellbeing support; community development, personal development and life skills.
  
  Are you interested in combining your skills with a purpose? Welcome to the Foundation! We run community projects with a home-based project (Mexico Casa) in Tapachula. Our mission is to bring about positive change in the heart of Chiapas, Mexico, by empowering youth and their families through education, training and community development. As we strive to support the lives of those in our care, we are seeking dedicated volunteers to join us!
  
  We have several volunteer roles available, each one outlined below:
  
  Casa Volunteer
  Volunteers are needed all year round. We consider a volunteer to be a "friend in authority" here here. Each volunteer has some talent they can share. You don't need to be an engineer or a certified child psychologist. A genuine love for children and desire to work are basic requirements. Our youth need love and fun, but also guidance, routine, and consistent limits.
  
  Sports & Driver Volunteer
  We are looking for a passionate and energetic Sports & Driver Volunteer to help facilitate sports activities and provide transportation services for the youth at theFoundation. The role combines both physical activity (coaching, leading sports sessions, run clubs, hiking) and logistical support (driving the youth to events, extra-curricular activities, sports matches, and outings like the river or beach). This position will be ideal for someone with an interest in sports and community service.
  
  English Teaching Volunteer
  English proficiency is an important tool for accessing better opportunities, both locally and globally, and this volunteer position contributes to the educational development of the foundation’s beneficiaries.
  You will work alongside local teachers or staff, delivering lessons and creating a supportive, engaging, and effective learning environment.
  
  Maintenance
  This volunteer position involves a variety of tasks depending on the needs of the organization but generally includes routine maintenance and repair work to support the daily functioning of our programs. Essential criteria include prior experience in carpentry or general maintenance and a commitment to ensuring a safe environment.
  
  Communication & Fundraising Assistant
  Are you a communication whiz? Assist with communication and fundraising tasks, helping us spread the message of positive change. This position involves creating and implementing strategies for outreach, donor relations, and fundraising initiatives that align with the foundation's mission to support. In this volunteer role, your work will directly contribute to the foundation’s ability to expand its programs, support its mission, and ensure the sustainability of its operations.
  
  Administration Assistant Volunteer
  An Administration Assistant Volunteer at the Foundation plays an essential role in ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of the organization's administrative functions. This role provides vital support in managing office tasks, organizing documents, coordinating communications, and assisting with day-to-day operations. Your behind-the-scenes work helps the organization stay organized, manage resources, and operate effectively, which ultimately enhances the foundation’s ability to deliver its life-changing programs and services.
  
  Essential:
  - Conversational in English or Spanish (bonus if both!)
  - Must be over 21 years old
  - Valid 'Working with Children Check' / Criminal Records Check prior to placement.
  - Flexibility as many of the roles will be combined
  
  Desirable:
  - Training, certificates and experience working with youth and vulnerable communities
  - International driving licence
  - Longer commitments will be prioritised.
  
  Ready to join? Contact us today to learn more about who we are, what we do, and how you can be a vital part of our mission. We can't wait to welcome you! 🤗🌟

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Practice your Spanish with native speakers and immerse yourself into the culture in a completely untouristic area. Volunteers working with our youth and community play a vital role in creating long-term change. By sharing your skills and time, you'll help empower others, build confidence, and make a lasting impact. Whether it’s through education, creative arts, or community projects, your involvement brings fresh energy and ideas that strengthen our programs.
  
  Through this cultural exchange, you’ll not only learn about a new culture but also give back in a meaningful way, leaving a positive legacy in the lives of the youth and the community you serve.
