::image::Every year, more and more expats are settling down in Buenos Aires, Argentina, whether for a few months or an indefinite period of time. Most come to hone their Spanish skills, some to perfect their tango moves, others to study at a university or simply embark on a new adventure. Whatever their reason, many of them have one thing in common: they want to give back to their adopted community. But where to start?
Join us for the More than Mate II: Volunteering in Argentina meet-up on November 11th to find out!
With over 2,000 nonprofits in Buenos Aires alone, we know it can be hard to navigate the nonprofit landscape in Argentina and find free opportunities. So we're teaming up with Voluntarios Sin Fronteras and South American Explorer's Club to host an event dedicated to you, the international volunteer. There will be group discussions centered around the topics of your choosing, a chance to chat with volunteer coordinators from nonprofits in the city, and a trivia game about Argentina's social sector.
We welcome anyone interested in community work who wants to meet like-minded people, whether you're a volunteer coordinator at an organization, are looking to become involved, or are an experienced volunteer.
