Community Support Peru
Join International Volunteer HQ, the world’s leading volunteer travel organization, and support the Community Support Volunteering Project in Peru.

You’ll stay in a volunteer house run by the local coordinator’s family or in a homestay.

The program has start dates on the first and third Monday of the month throughout the year.

This program ranges from 1-12 weeks. Your fully-hosted experience includes airport pick-up, orientation, accommodation, meals and 24/7 support. Detailed pricing information for your duration is available on our website.
