How To Apply

First of all, thank you for your interest in volunteering at CENIT. We rely heavily upon our volunteer staff, and are always looking for qualified, enthusiastic volunteers. Hopefully, throughout this website you will have found lots of information about CENIT, its programs and volunteer possibilities. For more details about volunteering with us please visit our Volunteers' FAQ section.

The first step to actually becoming a volunteer is to contact us via email at volunteer-office@cenitecuador.org. After this initial contact we will send you an Interest and Intent form for Prospective Volunteers. This form can also be found in the Volunteer Orientation Packet. Please download and send us this form only after you have thoroughly read through the entire website and have a clear understanding of what it involves to be a volunteer at CENIT.

Once we have received your Interest and Intent form, we will be able to judge if CENIT will be a suitable fit for you and if will be able to accommodate you in the programs that you are interested in. Ideally, this form would be received from you no later than a month before you are due to arrive, so that we can have a better idea of program staffing by volunteers. If you are accepted to volunteer with us, we will then proceed to finalize the plans for your volunteer internship at CENIT.

Please feel free to contact us at any point if you have any questions. You may contact us via email volunteer-office@cenitecuador.org or you may also call us at +593-2-265-4260. Please be aware that this phone is answered in Spanish, so please ask for the Volunteer Coordinator ("con la Coordinadora de Voluntarios por favor").
