Minkai travels to rural communities in Simoca, Tucumán Province. These trips are open to young volunteers and have two objectives: on the one hand, to strengthen the bond with the communities we support; on the other, to involve those who participate to commit themselves to
education in rural contexts.
​
During the trips, the participants organize various activities and workshops in order to involve and work together with the educational community (students, teachers, parents).

| Volunteer trips
"Locals and visitors connect through the basics and, in my opinion, that’s the beauty: laughter,
anecdotes, sharing experiences and more. All kinds of barriers disappear and a bond is formed where
all participants take something positive and enriching with them."
MERCEDES
| Ex-volunteer
"Thanks to Minkai´s great commitment and the efforts of many young people, entire families are able
to reach and value that which is intangible but ultimately vital: education. Maybe I wasn´t so wrong
with my first definition of Minkai, but I needed to travel, to be there to understand all that it
encompasses.”

"...apart from the fact that, at least in my case, this taught me a lot of things that made me change the
way I look at life, the image of happiness in the eyes of the children is a memory that no one will ever
be able to take away from me and I´m very grateful that I was able to live it.”
