PULSE of YOUTH - volunteering in Slovenia
Društvo Salezijanski Mladinski Center Rakovnik
Društvo Salezijanski mladinski center Rakovnik
Ljubljana, Slovenia
Description
The volunteers will be part of the team of volunteers at the Salesian Youth Center Rakovnik. Priorities that volunteers will carry out activities within the youth center itself- assistance and socializing on the playground and in club rooms, work with children and youth, preparation and implementation of activities with children and youth - playing board games, sports activities. Also, during the winter holidays when organizing various activities for the visitor center- both the daily program during the school year and the initial program during the summer holidays. In addition to working with children and young people who visit the center, the volunteers come together and work with a home team of volunteers who come to the center. It is expected that the volunteers will carry out a project (workshops, event, etc.) during the exchange, as they will also gain new knowledge and competences.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
In the same building as youth center is student dormitory, where volunteer has his/her own room with shared facilities. The volunteer can order food in the dormitory (breakfast, lunch, dinner) or get money and can prepare meals in the kitchen of the youth center. In the immediate vicinity of the center there are also several grocery stores and shopping malls where they can buy everything they need. The project provides funding for transportation from the home country to the youth center. The volunteer also gets money each month for a monthly bus ticket.
