BRAZIL ... Welcome to a Tropical Paradise!
Brazil seems to embody everything that is best in South America. The Amazon flows
through its heart! Great cities along its coast; pulse-pounding Rio de Janeiro;
sprawling, metropolitan Sao Paulo; and further north, the entrancing
canals and bustling piers of Recife.
You can volunteer on programmes in Rio de Janeiro and also on the
beautiful Island of Florianopolis (where Brazilians go on their
holidays!). This is a vibrant, pulsating country!

Care for Children in
Creches on the Island of Florianopolis
You'll teach, entertain and care for children ranging from 2 to 5 years. The activities
are based on basic English lessons and playing educational games. Apart from general
caring, you can also be involved in teaching them the alphabet, colours, names of
animals, etc., by using flashcards, organising games, singing and narrating nursery
rhymes - all these activities bring huge smiles to the children’s faces!
This is a great opportunity to spend time with the children of this wonderful island
community.

Care for Children in
Creches in Rio de Janeiro
Care for little ones who come from extremely poor backgrounds and who could really
use your time, energy and affection. You'll work in a creche in a Favella, caring
for children ranging from 1 to 5 years. The activities are based on helping the
teachers to take care of the children, as well as developing educational games,
and recreational activities.
You'll mainly be playing with the children, feeding them, bathing them, reading
to them and finding ways to interact and help them learn.

Teach Children on this
very Unusual Project on the Island of Florianopolis
This project is very unusual in that you won't teach in a school - rather, you'll
work in a Centre that provides unorthodox learning outside of the school environment.
Lessons are unique and great fun! You'll teach a variety of subjects to children,
while keeping them off the streets during non-school hours.
You'll have the freedom to teach almost any type of subject, including basing lessons
around your own culture, country and way of life back home.
