Program Description

Solidarity in our culture is a big value. We are always ready to help our family, friends and neighbours. Also, our country is open to new cultures and brazilians are specialists in welcoming people from all around the world. If you share the feeling of solidarity, you will feel like at home in Brazil.

The project is carried by a non profit organisation that take care of elderly people. The organisation was founded in 1946 in Santa Maria, in the south of Brazil. Nowadays, about 190 people are living and being cared by doctors, nurses, social workers and volunteers.

As a volunteer you will help the staff to take care the elderly. The tasks include to assist the elderly, develop workshops and activities to entertain.
