Description

About Us

  • We are a small organisation run by locals , who are in charge of all organisational and administrative duties. We work as a family , not as a large organization or with big groups.
  • Peru volunteering is an intermediate service between the community and the volunteers. Volunteers sign a General Agreement and disclaimer at the beginning. However there exists an important relationship of trust and commitment between the volunteer and Wanka Volunteers.
  • We are an open-minded group where volunteers from different backgrounds can live and work together regardless of their beliefs
  • We try to avoid unnecessary paperwork and utilize the Internet as much as possible in our communications
  • The organization has a self-support policy. Our administrative expenses are covered through volunteers. We do not depend on official funds or public programs
