4-week program:
- 2 weeks of Spanish Group Course Standard (20 les/wk) at IIC in Sosua and
- 2 weeks Volunteering at a local NGO partner organization in the area.
Prolongations of each or both are possible at extra charge.

This program is perfect for you if you want to combine classroom experience with language practice and do something meaningful.
During the first 2 weeks students will study Spanish. Classes are offered on different language levels, also for Spanish beginners. The group course (max. 7 students) consists of 20 45-min lessons per week and runs from Monday to Friday, usually from 9:00AM till 12:30PM.
During the following 2 weeks students will be placed with our volunteer partners. They will take direct care of the volunteers and cater the experience to their abilities, talents, and interests. Volunteers should expect to work an average of 15 hours per week.

PROJECT Esperanza (Sosua/ Puerto Plata area): Our program partner is a community development project in the Puerto Plata area. The project is mainly, but not only, working with Haitian immigrants in the area since 2006. Volunteering experiences there include: workshops (e.g. English or art) with the children, infrastructure (painting, building, murals...), garden work, office
work (e.g. helping to organize visiting school groups), working in the organization’s office, website/social media support, photography/ videography, and more.

PROJECT Dogs & Cats, DR (Sosua/ Cabarete area): Our program partner is a Dominican NGO taking care of stray dogs and cats in the Sosua/Cabarete area. The organization runs a cost-free sterilization program, provides vaccines/ parasite
treatments, offers an adoption program, has a community outreach education program in local schools and communities and a foster program. Their intention is to provide good homes for as many dogs and cats as possible and likewise provide
local families who take care of an animal with knowledge and funding where needed. Volunteering experiences there include: working with the animals, accompanying local families in the outreach program, organizational support (answering questions about adoption, maintaining the website, organizing
fundraising events), and more. Vets and vet students are welcome to work in the spay & neuter program.

Starting date is every second Monday all year round. The first starting date for 2017 is 9 January 2017. Please note: Project availability can be limited due to holiday seasons.
Accommodation and the airport pick-up can be booked through IIC as well.
Additional week(s) of Spanish and/or Volunteering can be booked at extra charge.
