My experience in Huancayo was shocking cause of the intense need for help which Expand Peru is trying to provide. If you’re very sensitive, like me, it will hurt your heart being there, but I still recommend this experience cause we learn that the world is sometimes way worse than our safe bubble at home and how we can contribute. This project made me realize so many things. Bernabé and Alvaro are very helpful with everything and you will have a beautiful time. The only thing I’d change is the fee, cause most volunteers don’t work, for example by finding other donations supporting the cause:)

I highly recommend this volunteer experience for anyone looking to make a positive impact in a community in need. I worked on three projects: assisting children with homework, providing support and activities for the elderly, and developing physical activities for adolescent mothers, always with help from a permanent volunteer. And the NGO, led by Bernabe, provided valuable support and cultural immersion. However, I suggest reconsidering the $150 fee, as food and transport are extra costs, and clarifying in the ad that there are no private rooms and that volunteers work not only with children.

We spent 2 weeks working with the elderly and at a children's after school club. It was amazing and a completely unforgettable experience.

Such a wonderful way to spend our last 2 weeks in Peru by connecting with the people that live here and experiencing what life is like in Huancayo. We are so grateful for the opportunity. The children and the elderly people that we spent time with were an inspiration to us and we felt they really appreciated us contributing time and energy to the programmes. Bernabe and Ingrid were fantastic, welcoming and helpful at every single moment. The volunteers' apartment is well equipped, comfortable and in a very safe area. We loved meeting the other volunteers during our stay too.

I had a fantastic experience with Expand and would definitely recommend. The kids are full of love and excited to learn, creating a wholesome and fulfilling experience. In the morning you assist with a separate chosen program (eg the young mothers), allowing for flexibility. Ingrid, Bernabe, Alvero, and Ian are lovely and very welcoming. Would recommend basic Spanish, but it is doable with near no Spanish (you have to be ready to learn quickly). I would l recommend this for anyone looking to give back and assist underprivileged sects of society with a grassroots locally-based organisation.
