We work with various organizations and you will have to pay neither for our help in organizing your volunteer work, nor for actually working there.

Academia Uruguay offers you the possibility to combine Spanish courses with volunteer work. You can work in different organizations and projects in Montevideo, discovering very particular problems and benefiting people in many sectors. Share your time, ideas and skills with Uruguayans and discover their culture in a unique way!

We consider volunteer work as an exchange whereby the volunteer in social organizations offers his work and the organization offers a space to share experiences. Receiving a volunteer implies integrating him into daily routines, allowing him to get to know one’s way of life. Being a volunteer, for us, is not an act of charity. It is a way of getting to know and to respect other cultures.

We work with various organizations and you will have to pay neither for our help in organizing your volunteer work, nor for actually working there. (As a free program we are proud to be listed by www.volunteersouthamerica.net ). If the volunteer organization depends on donations, Academia Uruguay will make this contribution, not you.
