Had an amazing experience at fundación the school the professors were exceptional and accommodating and the students are incredible. The work you do is entirely self guided which can make you feel a bit lost at times but if you're someone with agency and a drive to take part, the college is a great place to collaborate. Since you're living with the students the days are long and you've got to tackle to whatever situation might arise at any moment so you must be adaptable person I absolutely loved my time there the students are such an inspiration and I learnt and developed a lot during my stay

My time at the school was amazing! During school we helped in the classrooms and after school we just spend time with the children. We went to the playground, danced with them or played basketball. Every single day we spent there was wonderful and heartwarming. This school is very very important for the children, because it gives them the love and the support they deserve! Everybody welcomed us super friendly, the room was good and you get 3 meals and 2 snacks a day. I would 100% recommend this experience to everybody who likes to socialize and loves spending time with children!

I stayed at the school for two weeks and I really loved it! Everybody was so welcoming and lovley, the teachers and nuns are unbelivable friendly and they really help you with everything. Also with improving your spanish(basic knowledge needed). All of the children there are so happy and thankful that you are at the school and it gaves you a lot if you see them laughing. The food you get is delicious and they pay attention if you are vegetarian or something. I highly recommend volunteering here, there is a lot of help needed; you can really see your impact and how thankful everybody is!

Mi paso por el the school como voluntaria ha sido un regalo inmenso. La paciencia, el respeto y el cariño con el que los profesores y las hermanas educan y acompañan a los niños con necesidades especiales es digno de admirar. En este espacio, cada pequeño logro de los alumnos se celebra como una gran victoria. Agradezco profundamente la apertura de la comunidad para recibirme y la pureza de cada niño con el que compartí. Es un the school que no solo enseña, sino que sana y llena de esperanza a todos los que cruzamos sus puertas. Además de que siempre te hace sentir como en casa.

Para mí ha sido una experiencia muy gratificante. Me voy con el corazón lleno de amor . Compartir con los niños ha sido increíble. Y estar en medio de la naturaleza es una maravilla. Cada día levantarse en ese entorno es un regalo de la vida .
