Donations

A donation is expected from all volunteers in order to help pay the material and administrative costs of your volunteering stay with the Angels of Hope.  The donations allow us to buy the materials for the projects that you will participate in and will allow us to cover some of the expenses occurred during your stay at the Castillo.

What your donation includes: 

• Accommodation at "El Castillo" - good showers with hot water, use of kitchen facilities.  This is also where we hold meetings and do some project work.
• Spanish lessons for the first two weeks of your stay (however please note that these are optional, therefore the donation can not be reduced if you decide not to take them).
• Important and valuable contributions to materials for the projects you will be undertaking or materials needed for the Foundation schools and clinics. 
• Food is NOT included although you may be invited to eat lunch with your bolivian co-workers on occasion.

All the donations given will go to the above mentioned and the foundation itself - helping us to keep the doors open to over 100 childen in our nursery / kindergarten, as well as to provide health and hygiene to some 4000 individuals that are affiliated with the Foundation.

Donation Amount  : We ask a $150.00 US donation for the first two weeks and $50 US donation for each week after. For example, one month is $250.00 US.etc.  

There is an ATM in the village (despite what the guidebooks say) from which you can take out Dollars and Bolivianos.  You can also can change Dollars into Bolivianos.  Please note: travellers checks are not accepted in Villa Tunari. 

We do not return any part of the donation if the term is not completed or if the person does not comply with the rules and is asked to leave. Only in rare circumstances will any money be given out to the donors that pledged the money in the first place.
