Volunteering for GeoMundo offers you the fantastic opportunity to meet new people, develop new interests and gain new skills whilst working for a local community. Volunteering lets you test different kinds of work, giving you hands on experience of how different professions operate. Volunteers come from various backgrounds and directions. They may want to achieve a personal goal or are ready to face a new challenge, such as learning Spanish, gaining leadership, acquiring project development and management skills at an international level, enhancing teaching skills, helping in local medical centres, guiding nutritional projects, teaching ecological awareness or promoting recycling activities. Volunteering can bring you into contact with all kinds of professionals and people from every walk of life. In fact, the networking opportunities it can provide are among the least publicised but most exciting benefits of all. A good network can steer your career right through life and help you take giant steps towards your ideal job. Volunteer for people who welcome your help. An international and multidirectional experience at such level will surely get you life skills and also better chances of finding a job. Your volunteering helps to foster intercultural friendships. Your knowledge and experience will be imparted to those who have sometimes little opportunity to meet people from other cultures and little access to skills which you can convey. Your experience, knowledge and final report will help assess the status, progress and needs of the project. We can then determine where funds can be directed to. This may be school books, publications, construction material, toys, computers or grants for students who wish to attend university but cannot due to financial difficulties. It will also determine where food, medication and other goods shall be distributed.
