Community work in Ecuador
Despite being the smallest country in the Andes, Ecuador has a beauty and a diversity that belies its size. Unfortunately when you do community work in Ecuador you’ll see that it has ‘big country’ social problems too. 45% of Ecuadorians live in poverty and due to the hard life in the country, urban areas are swelling. Helping with community work in Ecuador is a great way to help alleviate some of the most acute problems here while at the same time getting to know this beautiful country.
Community work in Ecuador is a great way to spend time with the people that make this such a friendly country, before throwing on your rucksack and discovering the other attractions it’s famous for. Extra curricular activities include trekking the Andean peaks, clambering through tropical jungle, spotting unique wildlife on the Galapagos Islands and enjoying the golden beaches on the Pacific coast. Doing community work in Ecuador is a great way to get to know the country and at the same time help local people. We work with community projects all over Ecuador so you can see the very best of this little gem.
