I can't give you any specifics, but many church groups take volunteers to Bolivia. Perhaps a local church could point you in some direction.

Good folks to confer with
many good ops in nearby Peru like
www.ninoshotel.com others on
www.saexplorers.org/clubhouses/cusco
from $100/wk careful many scammers
Do not pay a lot up front to "volunteer"
Almost always a scam.... www.insuremytrip.com
cheap wise for Bolivia and check visa/consular advisories on
www.travel.state.gov
Thanks for the responses.
I´ve been talking to some companies who can arrange something for us, and wonder if anyone has any experience or info about them ?

Kind of off topic - but just wanted to mention the movie "Even the Rain" which we enjoyed from Netflix a couple nights ago. It was filmed in and around Cochabamba - the mts look beautiful.
A very good movie based on an interesting idea. ..
I know the movie you talking about it, it is something that a person have to wacth to understand the real situation of these countries in South America.
