Volunteering project in Italy – La Finestra/ La Polha
BIR ODV
CSV Insubria
Malnate/Varese, Itālija
Apraksts
The ESC project concerns two areas: disability and the promotion of volunteering among young people. These two associations (la Finestra and Polha) work with disabled people. The volunteer will be active in both associations: at Polha he/she will support disabled people during the training of different sports (hand-bike, sledge hockey, swimming and table tennis), while at La Finestra he/she will be involved in different workshops such as artistic, manual writing, dancing and more. We have chosen two local associations that work with disabled people to allow the volunteers to experience different realities. The European volunteer supports the team of these associations for about 25 hours a week (50% in La Finestra and 50 % in Polha) and the team of CSV for about 10 hours per month. At the CSV the volunteer will be mainly involved in actions related to young people (promotion of volunteering in schools, planning of youth events ...), and the contribution will be peer-to-peer.
Dzīvošana, ēdināšana un transports
Volunteers are hosted in Casa Grizzetti: a fully equipped house, with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom. The house has also a garden. The volunteer will share a bedroom with another volunteer. The house is in the small town of Malnate, a 15-minute walk from the train station. By train, you can reach Varese in 5 minutes and Milano in 45 minutes. Volunteers will cook for themselves. For those who work at La Finestra lunch is provided by the centre.

Dalībnieka profils
All people aged 18 - 30, who have a genuine interest and passion for working with people with disabilities and sports activities. No professional skills and experience are required, however, it is recommended that volunteers have experience in a similar sector or provide support in their personal life to have a realistic idea of working with disabled people. As we work with vulnerable adults, the volunteers should be kind, patient and compassionate. Volunteers who are willing to share their hobbies and interests (such as arts and sports) are welcome.
