The volunteer will be given 6 euros of daily pocket money (108 euros in total). Also, a volunteer will get 150 euros in total of food money. The plan is that volunteers make their own food in the accommodation. Trip to Osijek in purpose of ESC service will be covered by hosting organisation. The travel costs will be reimbursed to you after the activity, but only if you take part in the whole project.
