SKIP is a Charity working with disadvantaged families in the El Porvenir district of Trujillo, Peru. SKIP's largest reach is with the Education Department, which includes classes in mathematics, communication, physical education, and art.
The SKIP art programme involves nine primary groups between the ages of 5 and 13 years and two or three secondary groups between 13 and 17. For many of the participants these classes are the first exposure to art. You will work with the Arts Director to plan and deliver arts classes.
As an arts volunteer, we ask that you make a commitment of at least 1 month. Volunteers should have a basic level of spanish, and a desire to work with kids of all ages. Prior experience with teaching art, working with kids, and/or living abroad is prefered.

Mission Statement
SKIP is a non-profit organization helping disadvantaged children to realize their right to an education. We work to promote quality education for economically-disadvantaged children in El Porvenir and foster the capacity of children and families to be the principal agents of change in their own lives. We work in partnership with families through holistic programs focusing on the educational, economic, emotional and social development of each child and family.
Description
Enrolling and retaining children in the education system is much more than a question of money. To ensure sustainable results, we address factors like family economy, emotional well-being, stability of home environment, nutrition, and academic skillset, all of which impact the chances of a child to enter and stay in school. Our holistic approach focusses on four pillars of family development:
Education
Economic development
Psychology
Social work
