Our newest mission, since 2026. In Cochabamba, two months with about a hundred children and the Bolivia Digna foundation: meals, homework, workshops and health.

A first mission, and an intense one.

Around Cochabamba, in the heart of Bolivia, access to education and health care is still very unequal. Many families live in poverty, and children have few chances to thrive outside school.

We have teamed up with Bolivia Digna, a local foundation that runs several community centres. Our six volunteers work at two sites, Mercado and Tackoloma, with about a hundred children.

Two months on site, one of our longest missions: enough time to build real bonds with the children and the local teams.

A day at the centre.

Preparing activities, the comedor, workshops, homework help. At weekends, discovering the region.

  • Comedor & merienda

    Lunch and the afternoon snack are what bring the children in; the volunteers help out every day.

  • Homework help

    One-to-one and group support, alongside the local teachers.

  • Workshops & self-confidence

    Treasure hunts, dance, origami, sports days, emotion circles: learning to speak up and to dare.

  • Health

    Trips to the dental clinic, often a first, and first-aid training with paramedics.

The volunteers also repainted part of the outdoor spaces. The first mission is over, and it laid the foundations for a lasting partnership.

The second mission is on its way.

Your support pays for meals, workshop materials and trips to the dental clinic.
