Why Phaedra?

We worked with orphanage centers for more than 20 years, forming bonds and communities that remain in contact, we work through people with international experience. We want to transmit all our knowledge to help you have a great experience with us. Our staff travels regularly to our program destinations to experience first-hand programs and ensure that high standards of impact, safety and professionalism are met. We know all aspects of the program: accommodation, hospitality, projects and locations to which volunteers contribute. We help prepare for your trips and understand what it is like to travel to a new country for the first time. Our deep knowledge and experience means that we can provide outstanding service, support and advice to thousands of volunteers.

At Phaedra we recognize that a volunteer travel experience is much more than just volunteering. While we maintain a strong focus on providing high quality programs, we also understand that many volunteers are travelers for the first time and want to make time for sightseeing and exploring. To ensure that you get the most out of your experience, our local teams have established alliances with local travel companies to provide our volunteers with access to reliable travel and tourism activities.

Phaedra actively seeks local teams that offer quality projects with a real need for voluntary assistance, our approaches go mainly to orphanage centers in the different countries we offer, to help in the development and support of these children with few opportunities. Whether your stay is short or long, our partner organizations will ensure that you make a valuable contribution to support the long-term development goals of your host community.

Passion is one of the bases on which Phaedra has been built. We show a strong loyalty and passion to the communities in which we work by establishing long-term partnerships with local organizations and institutions. This allows us to make a long-term contribution to the social needs where our volunteers are located. This is an experience that will surely change your life and theirs

Volunteer safety is one of the top priorities for us. We have standards for risk management that we apply in each program and our volunteers are located in reliable institutions, organizations and families that have been evaluated by our local teams. Phaedra staff members will conduct periodic audits of each program to ensure the safety of volunteers. We have contact with embassies in each country, under any circumstances.

Quality and responsibility and safety are paramount. At Phaedra we are dedicated to ensuring that our volunteer programs run responsibly and have a positive impact that is sustainable over time. We set strict standards for responsible voluntary travel and work closely with our partners in each country to ensure that our programs meet all our expectations, particularly in relation to interaction with children.
