At Pan American Health Service our Volunteer's Program aims to promote the giving spirit in order to connect the volunteer to the people who receive their help.

About Our Volunteer Program

The hard work of our dedicated staff has been supplemented by countless volunteers over the last 50 years. Great-hearted professionals and students of various fields have become good friends and valuable colleagues of our organization. They bring with them a message of goodwill and love, not only for the children on our campus but also to community members around Lake Yojoa .

+ Ideal Applicant

Our work was started 60 years ago by two medical missionaries who believed in showing love to the poor through meeting their basic needs. Considering our missionary legacy, the ideal applicant will hold similar values to those espoused in Isaiah 58:7. The ideal applicant has a compassionate heart, is self-motivated and posseses a desire to share of themselves to help the poor.

The ideal applicant has a strong sense of adventure and a desire to help people who have little education and few resources. The desire to be of assistance motivates the ideal applicant to exhibit creativity in problem solving and a high degree of flexibility. Their insight and understanding of human nature and cultural differences aids in their mission to be of assistance and to successfully complete their volunteer experience.

Our ideal applicant exhibits a good moral example in their behavior, keeping in mind that they are helping to mold the characters of the children being raised on our campus.

The ideal applicant is over the age of 21, has meaningful work experience, is the student of a profession or is a trained professional, is a team-player, highly self-motivated, and can be productive with minimum supervision.
