We feel a strong connection with the Cuernavaca, Mexico community and try to provide each student with the opportunity to work with us in giving back. Free of charge to students, Instituto Chac-Mool will organize volunteer opportunities to places such as clinics, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, and orphanages for anyone who wants to help. We are especially dedicated to one local orphanage and coordinate frequent trips to assist them and to bring items donated by our students. Interested students and staff go for a half day to cook, clean, help with homework, and most importantly, interact with the children.

For individuals and groups who would like to volunteer more of their time while in Cuernavaca, we will provide a Custom Service Learning Program for you based on your schedule and desire to help. Available all weeks of the year, we suggest morning Spanish Immersion classes at Instituto Chac-Mool with afternoons free for coordinated volunteer work, but are happy to design any program you would like.
