  Descrição

  URGENT ROLES-
  -Looking to fill a volunteer coordinator position
  -Looking for SoloMundo Volunteers
  
  
  My name is Gabriel and I am the president of a wildlife conservation/ rescue organization and co-owner of the 42 acres it's housed on. Myself and a "new generation of wildlife professionals" took over the project nearly 3.5 years (this is a 26 year old project) with the goal to rescue, rehabilitate, and save as many wildlife patients as possible. We have a new goal to convert the property (42 acres) into a self sufficient organic farm that not only feeds all of the animals under our care but the students and visitors that frequent our campus daily. Our intention is to blend practical wildlife conservation with organic farming to better serve our conservation goals and give back to the planet. We currently employ 10 paid staff throughout the year.

  Este anfitrião oferece intercâmbio de idiomas
  Currently, we are looking for a volunteer who is bilingual in both Spanish and English and willing to teach daily Spanish lessons for our volunteers. We are happy to host volunteers who are interested in practicing languages. Most of our local staff speak Spanish, and volunteers have daily opportunities to learn and improve their Spanish through real conversations while working together. At the same time, our staff and community are eager to practice English, so bilingual volunteers can contribute by helping improve language skills. This creates a natural two-way exchange where everyone benefits.
