LAST-MINUTE OPPORTUNITY - TEACHING AND CARE IN AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS 3.0 IN MIERCUREA-CIUC (ROMANIA)

ASOCIATIA CARE2TRAVEL

Miercurea-Ciuc, Romania

Description

Would you like to volunteer? We offer long-term volunteering opportunities for 4 young people from EU countries & the Republic of Moldova. The main task of the volunteers will be to facilitate different after-school club activities for children in the surrounding villages of Miercurea-Ciuc. The main focus will be on the topic of "Promotion of Healthy Lifestyles and Mental Health". Each day of the week 4 ESC volunteers will go to different villages to provide numerous beneficial activities for various rural children. Through non-formal education and fun activities, volunteers will develop the social and English language skills of the children and raise awareness about the importance of "healthy living". In the after-school clubs volunteers spend part of their time working in groups and part of their time working with individual children. With this project, you can make a meaningful contribution to society, generate a significant impact, and truly help children in need.

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

Accommodation: volunteers will live in a fully furnished accommodation in the town, max. 2 participants in the same room, with gender-separated rooms, a well-equipped kitchen, as well as bathrooms with toilets and showers, free Wi-Fi included. Food: volunteers can use their food budget (150 EUR/month) to cater for themselves. They will receive 120 EUR/month pocket money. Transport arrangements: for local transportation, volunteers will receive bicycles to get around the town; international travel expenses will be reimbursed according to ESC Programme Guide, and green travel is encouraged.

Training will happen upon your arrival. You will be presented with the cultural differences, will take part in a city tour, and meet your future mentor.
