Volunteer Travel Argentina

Disadvantaged Children Project
Trip code: ARG1

Since Argentina 's economic meltdown in the late 90s, poverty combined with a lack of appropriate education and family planning, has resulted in millions of indigent children in Argentina. The parents of these children cannot adequately provide for their basic needs such as food, clothing and a proper education. In association with a number of non-profits, and Argentinean organizations, Rustic places volunteers/travelers in numerous “buddy roles” in an attempt to care for these disadvantaged children who may turn to the streets or less desirable options which are counter-productive to their education and future. This is an opportunity for volunteers/travelers to teach various hands-on skills to these children as well as nurture their interests, goals and ultimately make their dreams for a brighter future come to fruition.

Arrival Point:

Ingeniero Ambrosio L.V. Taravella International Airport – Córdoba
Airport Pick-up:

Upon the receipt of your flight information, our in-country coordinator or other project staff will greet the volunteers in the airport and take you to your project site. The address and telephone number of the local contact hotel will be given before departure just in case volunteers miss our representative in the airport. Please make sure to e-mail your flight information to both the USA office and the local in-country coordinator's office.

Departure Point:

Ingeniero Ambrosio L.V. Taravella International Airport – Córdoba
Airport Drop:

Rarely, a few do request an escort back to the airport; this is an extra expense of about $75.  Most volunteers are very familiar and comfortable with their stay and have great ease taking their own taxi or bus back to the airport.

Internal Transportation:

Rustic Volunteer Travel manages one-way transportation to project. Volunteers will be responsible for their own personal and return travel. We do not cover daily transportation from the host family/hotel to the volunteer project. Our program is designed to save you, the volunteer, as much as possible.

Start Dates:

2nd and 4th Mondays of each month

Arrival Before Start Date:

Rustic Volunteers/Travelers coming to Argentina are advised to arrive one day before their program start date. If you arrive more than one day early or stay after the program, you will be responsible for your room and food expenses.

Working Hours: 30- 40 hours per week
