Sharing Dreams is a pure and honest organisation. I helped with a children project, in a small village, which is a new project. The children are very eager to learn English so that is what I did during my stay, try to teach them some English. I was free to organize whatever I thought was good to do. We did a lot of game-based learning, which was really joy-full for both, the kids and myself. It is nice to see with your own eyes how happy the community is with help from Sharing Dreams. The coordinators are truly involved and do everything in their power to make a difference for the ones who need this the most

I volunteered with the Sharing Dreams Project in August 2017. It was a great experience - I got to learn much about Peruvian culture, particularly in the central Andes where the project is located, explore local attractions and historical and cultural sites, and was exposed to the delicious cuisine of Peru. The coordinators are very supportive and prioritize cultural exchange in addition to ge volunteer work. Working with the children and helping to teach English was very rewarding, and the reception of the children, who are eager to learn and play, was heartwarming. I'm very glad I got the opportunity to volunteer for this organization!
