Volunteer
Our
volunteer and internship program is the foundation of our
organization. It provides knowledge and experience to all parties
involved. Throughout the year we receive individuals and groups
of volunteers from Puerto Rico and abroad. Our volunteers help with the
development of our organic gardening and bio-construction efforts and the
general maintenance of our facilities. Their dedication has helped us
successfully complete several projects. Our volunteers gain valuable
experience by working in a sustainable environment and from the
shared knowledge Plenitud is proud to foster.
Here are some of the ways you can help be a part of our community and develop skills.

Individuals
We encourage
individuals to participate in their area of interest. Local

chosen project should contact us for more information.
We also receive individuals over the age of 18 for extended periods of time (1-3 months) and offer them a place to stay at our facilities. This a great opportunity for students with to complete internships or practice in different fields of sustainable development and permaculture.

Groups
We also

days for an immersive permaculture experience. During their stay,
groups get the opportunity to work on current projects, participate
in educational workshops, and live in our community. For more

"Plenitud is one of those beautiful communities that feels just wonderful. The staff live a vegetarian, organic, composting, serene life and invited the group into their family. The goal of the organization is to spread love and health and help anyone interested through education to live a more centered and healthy life."

Work Parties
Sierra Club work party
Work
Parties are events that typically last one or two days during which
volunteers collaborate on specific projects. These are an excellent
opportunity to meet and learn from others with similar intentions.
Work parties are a great choice for church groups, friends, schools
and clubs.
If you are a member of a group and wish to organize a work party, please contact us for more details.
