Description:
We are looking for volunteers with a degree or experience in cooking. We need someone to help with the weekend shifts and occasional shifts during the week if the Brazilian cook is not available. Four meals a day are served for children, staff, and volunteers in the main kitchen Cooking is done predominantly on a wood stove.

• 6 month – 2 year volunteer period

• Ideally experience in working with children and teenagers
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!
