Special Need: Interest in teaching dance, singing, theater, and music to children

Frevo dancing, enthusiastic singing, theater, and music are some of the activities in our Brazilian Skills-Based Volunteer Project. Designed to provide extracurricular skills-based activities for children between the ages of 7 and 18, this Brazil volunteer project allows participation in a wide variety of activities also including learning IT skills and taking part in sporting activities. Volunteers organize the classes and help make the time enjoyable for the children. This project does not have the budget to employ paid staff members, so it relies heavily on volunteer support.

Activities
Volunteers help to organize activities; assist staff members; and teach English on an informal basis

Working Hours
Volunteers work 5 hours a day, some time between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. on weekdays.

Resources
Basic resources will be provided. However, volunteers may want to bring some items from home. Anything that can be used in extracurricular activities, as well as English books and magazines, are greatly appreciated.
