Otra Cosa Network is a registered Peruvian non-profit NGO (no. 11126841) and registered UK Charity (no. 1133680) whose goal is to connect suitable community-led projects with willing, capable volunteers in a way which truly benefits both parties. Our mission is to provide community projects with a supply of well-motivated volunteers with the right skills and experience to provide appropriate support to our projects and to give volunteers a genuinely worthwhile, affordable, satisfying and well-supported volunteer experience in Peru. Together we aim to offer life-changing provisions to both adults and children in the community-projects we partner and a life-changing social development opportunity for our volunteers.

We offer an introduction to Otra Cosa Network and life in Huanchaco upon arrival and can provide low-cost long-term accommodation options for our volunteers. Spanish language classes can also be provided and good prices with local teachers.
