LOCATION OF GUATEMALA GAP YEAR VOLUNTEER PROGRAMS

Gap year volunteers can begin Guatemala volunteer placements on the first and third Monday of every month. IVHQ can also start volunteers on Mondays outside of the first and third Mondays but please enquire with IVHQ staff about this before applying. Gap year volunteers can choose to volunteer for periods of one week to six months.
GUATEMALA GAP YEAR VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS
Gap year volunteers must be 18 years or older at the beginning of the program and have at least a high school education. Gap year volunteers participating in the health care must have appropriate training and certification (to be presented to IVHQ partner staff on arrival in Guatemala).
