Review for VE Global, Santiago, , Chile

Rating: 4 stars  

In my volunteer work with VE, I had the opportunity to work in three types of institutions: a daycare, a school for kids with special needs and a community outreach centre, all geared to meeting the needs of kids living in high risk areas of Santiago. I was able to implement various educational and recreational programs, run by VE, with the kids in the hogars and help to organize celebration days for the kids at the end of the various programs (art festival, carnival etc). I also had the chance to use by background in social work to design trainings for volunteers on various issues that they face in the institutions in which they work (ie behaviour management, social skills training etc). Overall, I feel that VE has provided me the opportunity to use my skills and truly contribute to the kids and the institutions in which I work.
