What – Hundreds of volunteers do incredibly meaningful and necessary work for BBC graphic designers to photographers, from weekend cleanup coordinators to translators and editors—our volunteers perform essential tasks that enable BBC to move forward.

Why – The dedication and passion of volunteers act as a catalyst for positive change, and for that we are forever grateful.

Who – Volunteers commit to different amounts of time, from two hours to a year.

When – Some volunteers live in the area year-round, while others are visiting for a short period of time.  Additionally, virtual volunteers help with our programs from afar.

Where – Communities and schools throughout the Banderas Bay, Mexico

How it works – It is important to us that the volunteer experience is a positive one for all individuals involved, and that volunteers go through an application process in order to be placed according to their skills and interests. Every volunteer is an ambassador of the BBC philosophy.
