Volunteer abroad opportunities volunteering in over 40 countries worldwide through United Planet! Our unique Volunteer abroad program combines volunteering abroad, language learning, cultural activities, learning excursions, and more to provide an incredibly fulfilling experience for volunteers and valuable support for communities in need. Volunteers of all ages, nationalities and backgrounds are invited to join 1-52 week volunteer abroad programs in 40 countries worldwide. The purpose of the volunteer opportunities in Ecuador is to promote a deeper level of cultural exchange and understanding through meaningful volunteer work at local schools, social activities with the local community, and both free and guided excursions. You can work with children from low-income families at a day care or center for special needs. We have also several projects in the Cloud Forest of Nanegal. Volunteers can plant seeds and organic coffee or identify flora and fauna. http://www.unitedplanet.org/volunteer-in-ecuador
