Description:
Casa do Caminho’s communications and management team is overloaded. Confusion often arises because there is no central point for communication. Meetings are badly attended, there is nobody to attend guests, and the administration is done in an old fashion way. There are heaps of paper files which could be easily filed on our pc.
We are therefore looking for a secretary/ accountant who speaks and writes Portuguese fluently to help us!
What are the requirements?
• Age minimum: 21 years
• Advanced Portuguese skills
• 6 month - 2 year volunteer period
Who are we?
Casa do Caminho is situated in the middle of a rainforest, outside of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The orphanage aims to take children away from aggression, drugs & criminality in Rio and surrounding suburbs. It provides these children with shelter, nutrition, education and a lot of freedom to play. Your help is needed because international volunteers bring new knowledge and enthusiasm to Casa do Caminho from which the children and staff can learn from!
What do we offer?
The volunteer program at Casa do Caminho is completely free. Volunteers receive airport escort, accommodation, food, training, Portuguese classes and access to “capoeira” classes in exchange for their services. Volunteering at Casa do Caminho is a unique cultural experience – you will get to know the brazilian culture, have the freedom to set up your own projects and the children will make you feel at home from the very first second!
