A lot of travelers arrive in Guatemala looking to offer a helping hand to the less fortunate. The downside is often times many volunteer organizations charge several hundred or thousand dollars for an opportunity to give back to this nation's people, which is something the average backpacker on a tight budget simply cannot afford. However, at La Asociacion Nuestros Ahijados the chance to volunteer is not only completely without charge, but it is also one of the most rewarding experiences that can make your trip of a lifetime leave a positive impression on the lives of local Guatemalans. Nuestros Ahijados offers short-term volunteer opportunities for travelers looking to help out for a week or two, as well as long-term options for those that decide to stay for awhile. Among other things, help at a homeless shelter, distribute clothing or shoes to those in need, or partake in the highlight of the operation, offering care for malnourished infants and children at La Casa Jackson in nearby San Felipe.
