Desde el inicio súmamente motivadora! El director se puso a disposición, informándome de las tareas a realizar, así como asesorándome sobre el lugar y qué podía hacerse. Se respetó absolutamente el horario de trabajo y las tareas a realizar (limpieza la organización escuela, de los bancos y sillas, decoración del salón, etc.) incluso hubieron días en donde me sentía un poco débil producto del calor, y no tuvo problema en que pausara la actividad. Concluyó el voluntariado con jornada de capacitación al personal docente (quienes me integraron rápidamente) y una nota en vivo. Super valiosa!! Muy a gusto!

Fue una experiencia muy rica, tuve mucho contacto con la gente local, pude ayudar a la escuela y los niños con fotos y videos y mejore mi español. Jorge e Stepanie son personas muy amables, ayuda en todo que necesita.

Muy positiva esta experiencia sobre todo hablando de participación colaborativa, lamento que durante mi estancia los niños estuvieron de vacaciones y realmente no tuve mucho contacto con ellos

Genial experiencia de voluntariado. La estancia inicial era de 7 dias pero al final nos quedamos unos días más. Lo mejor la buena relación con todo el personal la organización escuela, así como las tareas asignadas, que abarcaron más de lo estipulado, aprovechando incluso capacidades más relacionadas con mi profesión. Muchas gracias a la organización Cani Guatemala por esta oportunidad, que gran proyecto tienen por delante, les deseo lo mejor.

Si quieres tener una experiencia de inmersión local en una comunidad a través de una escuela, esta es tu oportunidad. CANIGUATEMALA es una la organización larga trayectoria que vela por el bienestar educativo y deportivo de los niños y jóvenes. Los primeros días fueron tareas de mantenimiento, jardinería, limpieza y pintura la organización escuela, pero los últimos 3 días tuve oportunidad de proponer otro tipo de actividades más acordes a mis capacidades y experiencia laboral. Gracias a Jorge y a todo el personal por todo lo vivido. Sin duda, repetiría! Felicidades por este gran proyecto!
