Beskrivelse
The only limitation is your own imagination" Come and help us out at the voluntary central, we’re in need of some extra hands and brains! The main tasks will be creating activities with and for all members of the municipality, all ages and backgrounds. Organize activities indoors and outdoors. Support the local youth council with their projects. You will also be working with children, the elderly and refugees. We can offer a wide range of possibilities for personal growth! Learn the Norwegian language and the way of living in one of Norway’s smallest municipalities located way up north. The program covers all your expenses! We have a Facebook-page called EVS Vevelstad, where you can see some of our work. We are looking forward to host volunteers from Europe, and welcome you with warm hospitality.
Logi, mad og transport
Accommodation can be partly with a host family, but for the most you'll live in your own apartment, which you share with the other volunteer. Transport to/from work will be arranged. Accommodation, food, pocket money and transport will be covered by European Solidarity Corps funding. Please keep in mind that you will need a sending organisation who will support and guide you through the whole process. You can search for a potential supporting organisation on the accredited/Quality-Labelled organisation database: https://youth.europa.eu/volunteering/organisations_en
