UBECI is a small nonprofit organization in Quito, Ecuador  whose mission is to give market and street children the love,hope and education they need to craft a way out of their daily subsistence living. They also conduct after school English teaching and tutoring programs for underserved children in Quito and rural communities.  
Volunteers, 18 years and older, profit from home stay accommodations (as well as optional Spanish language lessons) for very low cost. Knowledge of Spanish is helpful but not mandatory. Volunteers include high school and college students, teachers and professionals.  This year, there is an especially acute need for volunteer help, as they are trying to expand their programs to other markets and schools.
