Service Learning Programs in Guatemala |

Partner with CEPA Foundation to create a service learning volunteer and/or awareness program. We will match projects in the community to meet the needs of your students and faculty leaders or together, we can create new initiatives that suit the objectives the community and your students' learning journeys.

The volunteer and awareness projects focus on children and families, school and education improvement, and/or health and medical needs. Healthcare, dental and nursing, education, optometry, agriculture, and water engineering majors are naturally a great fit for the current needs of the local community, but students from any academic field can greatly benefit from a service learning experience.

A wide range of cultural activities and excursions to famous sights of Guatemala can be incorportated into any program.

For all service-learning programs in Guatemala, CEPA Foundation is working in close cooperation with the local non-profit organization Fundación Corazones Libres (FUNCOLI) (Free Hearts Foundation). Their founder has been actively advocating for the Mayan community for over 20 years.

CEPA Foundation is highly committed to supporting FUNCOLI’s initiatives in Guatemala and gives back a portion of the revenue generated from each service-learning program to the communities in Vuelta Grande.
