    Over het programma

    When hearing about rescuing animals, pets like dogs and cats usually come to our minds. However, there are also an incredible number of farm animals that are victims of violence, abuse or neglect.

    This wonderful volunteer project takes place at a farm sanctuary in the Central Region of Chile. The Farm Sanctuary was officially founded back in 2016 and has since then taken care of farm animals and pets in need. The farm gives animals that have been neglected and abused a new loving home on 9 hectares of land. The animals are cared for, treated and pimped up again. They are not available for adoption but are allowed to spend the rest of their life at the farm sanctuary. More than 160 animals (number may change) of 15 different species have already found a safe and caring home at the sanctuary. Via social media, the farm sanctuary also makes a great contribution to educational work in relation to the respectful handling of farm animals and pets as well as a plant-based diet.

    Help neglected and abused animals "get back on their feet", so that they can live dignified lives. In this volunteer project you can stand up for the voiceless and show your big heart for animals. If you love animals and like to have animals around you all day long, then you will enjoy this volunteer work very much. However, please be aware that work can also be hard and exhausting. The tasks have to be done dutifully and carefully. The welfare of the animals comes first!

    Your tasks as a volunteer may include:
    1. Care of the animals
    2. Feeding the animals
    3. Ensure that the animals always have enough water
    4. Keep stables and enclosures clean
    5. Construction of new enclosures and corrals
    6. Improve/maintain existing facilities
    7. Administering medication and/or assisting with vet visits
    8. Assisting in fundraising campaigns
    9. Public relations and educational work
    10. Maintaining the social media channels

    Volunteers usually work from Monday to Friday between 8 am in the morning to 5 pm in the afternoon with a lunch break. Very motivated volunteers can also take shifts on the weekends to help with the feeding of the animals.

    Note: The tasks may vary. They depend on factors such as number of volunteers, weather, season, current needs of the project, as well as self-motivation. Not every volunteer may be fully involved in all these tasks.

    Limache is a cozy little town in the central region of the South American Andean country of Chile. It is about 35 kilometers from the famous port city of Valparaíso, which is very popular with tourists. Limache has about 40,000 inhabitants and the landscape is rural. The city is beautifully situated surrounded by mountains, hills and valleys.

    The area around Limache is one of the largest tomato growing areas in Chile. Limache is the third largest vegetable producer in Chile with 1023 hectares under cultivation.

    From Limache you can also quickly get to Valparaíso and Viña del Mar on the Pacific by public transport. Both cities are definitely worth seeing and invite to weekend trips. Santiago can also be easily reached in about 2 hours by public transport and a short trip to the metropolis offers a great contrast to life in the country.

    Over de organisatie

    South America Inside promotes intercultural, linguistic and educational exchanges. Its volunteer programs are addressed to students, professionals and retirees.

    Ontmoet je organisatie

    South America Inside is an intercultural management agency, founded back in 2003, which specializes in the promotion of programs abroad, language travel and educational programs throughout Latin America.

    Since 2007, to enrich the experience of our global-minded clients and to provide them with even more possibilities, South America Inside has been expanding their program offerings throughout South and Central America.

    Working together with some of the best language schools in Latin America, South America Inside provides high quality language courses in almost every Latin American country.

    Thanks to a professional team of motivated and friendly staff, South America Inside has been very successful over the past several years and have been able to establish an outstanding network of what we call "Insider Contacts." To enrich the experience of their clients and to provide them with more possibilities, South America Inside has been expanding our program offerings throughout Central and South America, in addition to our well-established Chilean programs.

    Volunteer Work

    Do you dream of staying abroad while doing something positive? Are you looking for a unique experience that will leave a mark on your life? Then a Volunteer Work program in South America or Central America is perfect for you!

    With South America Inside you can combine an adventure abroad with social commitment, and create lasting memories in Latin America. Support the protection of endangered species; help a local community construct new homes; give new hope to impoverished children.

    The possibilities to lend a hand are diverse, as there are the many places where help is needed. We have classified our volunteer projects in different areas so you can easily find the one (or more!) projects that best match your needs and interests.

    Why with us

    There are many persuasive reasons that speak in favor of South America Inside when it comes to selecting your perfect provider of language, study and volunteer travel abroad. Following, we have prepared a short summary so that you can get us to know a little better.

    Our Insider benefits at a glance:

      Regional Experience
    Over one decade (established in 2003) of dedication to language, work and study travel programs in Latin America. Thanks to our long standing work and life experience in the South American continent, we know this region really well. Therefore, we can help and inform you in a professional and competent way.

      Multifaceted Offers
    Over time we have developed new programs to offer a wide array of work abroad opportunities to our clients. We have been pioneers in launching new exchange programs, as we have been the first in offering Work & Travel/Working Holiday and Farm Stays in Chile and successfully introduced these programs into the market back in 2005. Since 2012, we are the only agency to offer this type of program in Costa Rica.

      Insider Advice
    Despite living in the modern era of the internet, we know that reliable and competent advice is still an important criterion for most of us. At South America Inside, you will find the benefits of an internet provider and an independent travel agency. We will be glad to pass on our extensive knowledge and regional experience.!

      Location
    It is difficult to run programs when there is nobody “on the ground” to evaluate existing options and search for new opportunities. So, we are located in Chile, on location, and we know everything that is going on first hand. We know what it is like to live as a foreigner in South America and will be happy to assist you in making your stay unforgettable!

      Independence
    South America Inside is an independent provider of language courses, internships, volunteer work, Farm Stays and Work & Travel programs in Latin America. We neither depend financially nor structurally on any other company, language school, association or organization. Therefore, we are able to give personalized information in accordance to your needs and availability.

    •  Multilingual Team

    Our team is multilingual and international! We speak fluent English, Spanish and German, as well as some French and Portuguese. With our customers, we can communicate in their native language and we avoid misunderstandings with local partners by communicating in Spanish with them. You can be sure that there will be an English-speaking contact person for you before, during, and after your stay.

      Customer Service
    Excellent customer service is one of the most important goals for South America Inside, and this is evident with the positive feedback we regularly receive from our many happy clients. Emails are answered within 48 business hours and every client is treated with the same friendliness and expertise.

      Gapless and Accurate Information flow
    With South America Inside you will have one and the same contact person before, during and after your trip. With that said, we guarantee a gapless and accurate information flow and you will always be very well informed.

      Approved Program Places
    Many of our program places, especially in the area of internships and volunteer work, are designed in the way that they will be recognized by most universities, colleges or academies.
