> Volunteer and Cultural Immersion Packages

La Choza Chula – a wonderful combination of cultural immersion and sustainable development in action.

Suzannah, Carpe Diem Group Leader, November 2016

La Choza Chula offers bespoke cultural immersion and volunteer packages for groups. Our tailor-made packages include impactful volunteer work on one of our community development programs alongside cultural immersion and personal development activities. We aim to give groups a unique opportunity to fully integrate into the local community and learn more about a grassroots organisation working in development, while contributing meaningfully to our work in El Paredon.

The itinerary can be personalised depending on the specific learning outcomes and objectives of each group.

Workshop topics include: Introduction to International Development, Problem Solving, Environmental Education, Cultural Exchange, Global Interdependence & Consumerism, Introduction to Social Enterprise, Social Enterprise Challenge, Library Story Hours, Action at Home and many more.

Activities can include: village tour, surf lesson, Spanish class, bracelet workshop, Guatemalan cooking experience, mangrove fishing tour, football match (11 and 5 a side), turtle tour and homestay experiences.

If you are a family, group or organisation and would like to find out more about our volunteer packages, email us at info@lachozachula.org

Volunteering at La Choza Chula is an amazing opportunity to be a part of a unique development project. A very complete one in my opinion. While living in an incredible place, by the beach, in a really incredible country.
