Hey Everyone! So I am trying to plan my FIRST trip to Peru for two weeks in December. I have always wanted to travel and volunteer but never got the chance. Well the chance has finally come where I have the time and the mental commitment to go.
I plan on going to work with special needs. This trip is going to be the experience of a life time, however; it is expensive to be able to do these trips.
Anybody who knows me knows that I absolutely love my job working with special needs and behaviours. I put my heart and soul into it, learning something new everyday and constantantly trying to help and improve lives of those that I can.
This trip will be an eye opening experience and a majical trip for me getting to see and experience the different care, diseases, developmental disabilities, and the resources offered in Peru. I am very excited to learn about how the cultural diffences effect the field of study.
I have been working in the field for many years now, sometimes without even realizing it. It has become second nature to me. Working with this population opens your mind and heart to so many things. The multiple things that you see these people do, how strong, positive, and successful they can be amazes me.
I have had many oportunites for experience in Ontario and now I feel it is time to get some experience, insights, and knowledge from volunteering in another country.
While in Peru my goals are:
1. To make at least 2 people smile each day
2. To teach something new (tactic, skill, previous experience) to another worker
3. Give at least one kid with something that they have always wanted/never gotten to do (new games, new food, new knowledge)
4. Learn a new tactic/skill to use in the field
5. Recognize the differences and struggles there to be able to come home and be able to react differently to situations here
Please help me fulfill this dream by donating just $10. Every penny counts to help send me to Peru in order to use my strengths and tactics to help those that I meet and even those that I dont. If I can leave there knowing that I made a difference in atleast one persons life I will be extreamly happy and greatful for my trip.
