Volunteer programs

Global Education
As a volunteer in the Program of Global Education you are creating a possibility for the children of Xecanchavox to get intercultural experiences and learn a more global perspective on the world. 
​
Within this program we want to emphasize multicultural learning and cultural exchange. During the program children learn to understand cultural diversity and different ways of life. The children are inspired to explore the world around them in ways which are available in their own lives. It's a possibilty to present your home country, culture and language. You are working individually or together with other volunteers.

Teaching English
As a volunteer in teaching English you will get the chance to plan and organise classes for children at the primary and secondary schools. 

You will teach basic English and help the students to improve their comprehension and conversational skills as well as their pronunciation in English. Depending on the students' age group, their interests and level of English you might also include literature or cultural education to the classes.
​
Volunteers will also be able to provide theoretical and practical assistance and aide the teachers as they interact with the students.

Dental Clinics
Dental clinics for the children of Xecanchavox are held bi-annually. Kamalbe partners with Universidad Mariano Galvez to teach students about dental hygiene, provide clean teeth and preform extractions when necessary.

Volunteers with this program have the opportunity to lead games and activities for children to teach them how to get their teeth clean properly, also assisting Mariano Galvez dental students with cleanings and extractions (bringing supplies, holding lights, helping with recovery, etc), or to participate in fundraising efforts with Kamalbe.

Maintenance and construction
Kamalbe volunteers have supported; the replacement of inadequate kitchen facilities to support sanitary food practices; general maintenance of homes and painting buildings to ensure safe, clean structures for practical use; supporting the distribution of soap and feminine hygiene products, and much more.
