Current Volunteer Programs:
Known for its beautiful beaches, lush jungles, and laid back culture, Costa Rica is consistently a top choice for eager globe trotters. Are you inspired to teach English, empower and share your talents with local children, lead sports program, or help beautify and improve the local area? Our program empowers volunteers to gain professional and personal experience while also helping people living in a low-income community.
- English Teaching
Teaching English abroad is the perfect way to gain valuable experience teaching English as a foreign language while exploring new countries. This is a great opportunity for experienced teachers as well as college students and any aspiring teachers who want to gain more work experience in education. WeVOL partners with the local public schools to teach preschool, primary, and high school kids. In addition, WeVOL runs an Adult English school. Volunteers can choose the age group and English ability level they prefer to teach. - Sport Leadership

- Assist a local teacher during school Physical Education classes
- Assist local youth soccer league for girls and boys
- Organize games and activities for the children to promote fitness, health, and well-being
