Each year we select committed individuals to serve in the clinic and dedicate themselves to the rewarding work we do in Guatemala. We seek thoughtful, diverse, and hardworking volunteers. For every application, we consider the applicant’s volunteer and academic history, Spanish level, length of commitment and enthusiasm.

ARE THERE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH VOLUNTEERING?
Primeros Pasos is a grass roots, low budget organization that relies on the generosity of our volunteers and supporters to provide quality health care at the Clinic. Operations depend heavily on donations, both monetary and in-kind. We ask all volunteers to fundraise the equivalent of 300 USD on behalf our organization before or during their time with us so that we may continue to provide medical and educational services to the communities of the Palajunoj Valley. This goal can be met either by fundraising or collecting supplies or a combination of the two. As a volunteer you will become a representative of Primeros Pasos and by fundraising not only will you provide needed funds and supplies but you will also raise awareness about our work here in Guatemala.
