Growing in opportunities
The Blessed J. Matulaitis social center
Vilnius, Lietuva
Aprašymas
Join a community where people with intellectual disabilities and their families are at the heart of everything. As a volunteer, you’ll share everyday moments—cooking, shopping, creating together—and enjoy special outings to theatre, basketball games, or a cozy café. Each day ends with reflection, laughter, and connection. Here, you’re not just a helper—you’re a companion, a leader, and a valued part of the family. Your ideas and energy make a real difference, building joy, solidarity, and lasting friendships. Volunteering here means more than giving your time—it’s about growing together and being part of something bigger.

Mokymas veiklos laikotarpiu
Volunteers take part in several trainings to support their journey. Before departure, a preparatory session is held by the sending organization. Soon after arrival, the Lithuanian National Youth Agency offers on-arrival training. Midway through the project, a mid-term seminar brings volunteers together to reflect, share experiences, and recharge. Depending on the home country, some volunteers join training after returning home. Throughout, a tutor supports daily activities and a mentor helps reflect on the international ESC experience.
Dalyvio profilis
We don’t expect you to have previous experience in this field or a specific educational background. High-level English skills are not required either—though it’s a plus if you do! What we really ask for is motivation and the ability to clearly explain why you want to join. You should be ready to stay in Lithuania for the entire duration of the project, be between 18 and 30 years old, and not have participated in a long-term EVS or ESC volunteering project before. Most importantly, we’re looking for open-minded, communicative people who are eager to build connections and embrace new cultural and language challenges.
