Anybody of any age or any background is welcome onboard the bus as a volunteer. As long as you have the desire to share your love of reading, and the enthusiasm to get involved in the days activities, then you could help transform the lives of many children in Ecuador.

Ecuador is a Spanish speaking country and so some basic Spanish is important, however confidence and enthusiasm are more important than grammar and punctuation! Spanish courses are available in Ecuador if you are a bit out of practice and need a refresher.

Girandula, together with BISEE Books, is looking for adventurous volunteers to help us change the lives of children in Ecuador.

Volunteering is incredibly rewarding. You will travel either to schools or other children's groups, or work at reading events in Quito and engage with the children there. As well as reading with the children, drawing, singing and playing are all part of life as a volunteer!
