Hands in Action
Agrupamento de Escolas Terras do Ave
Pedome, Portugal
Descripción
Volunteers will mainly carry out tasks at the school but may also collaborate with local organizations like H2Ave, Humanitave, and the senior center, gaining broader community engagement experience. At school, they will join the “Welcome and Empathy Week”, supporting group dynamics and team-building activities to help students start the year positively. Throughout the project, volunteers are expected to lead workshops aligned with their interests — such as arts, music, languages, environment, or digital skills. They are also encouraged to propose creative projects to improve and brighten the school space.
Alojamiento, manutención y transporte
Accommodation is in a nearby private house, hosting up to 10 volunteers in shared double rooms (4 rooms, 2 people each) and one sofa bed. The house includes a shared kitchen, two bathrooms, and a common living room for social time. Breakfast and lunch are provided on working days at the school canteen. Volunteers receive a daily allowance of around 10€, covering pocket money and food, paid at the start of the activity. They also get a school card for discounted snacks. Volunteers will be reimbursed for public transport travel costs, up to a max based on distance, with original tickets.
Formación durante la actividad
The volunteers will have continuous support from the project team throughout the entire duration of the activity. Before the activity begins, online meetings will be organized to clarify any questions, whether related to travel and accommodation arrangements or the specific activities to be undertaken.
