Village Together
Místní akční skupina svatého Jana z Nepomuku, z.s.
Spálené Poříčí, Cechia
Descrizione
This European Solidarity Corps project takes place in western Czech Republic, in the municipalities of Spálené Poříčí, Žinkovy and Měcholupy, within 30 minutes of Plzeň. Activities are organized by the Local Action Group of St. John of Nepomuk (MAS SJN) and focus on cultural and social revitalization of rural areas that often lack facilities for community life. The volunteer will help with leisure and community activities at the Community Centre in Spálené Poříčí and in open clubs in Žinkovy and Měcholupy. The program also involves care for a community garden, running a public clothes-sharing closet, and supporting the local food bank. The volunteer will participate in intergenerational activities with children, youth, adults, and seniors, gaining broad experience in non-formal education and community work. The project offers room for personal ideas and pilot initiatives enriching local services.
Alloggio, vitto e trasporto
Accommodation and food is fully covered; the volunteer will have a private room with bathroom and kitchen on the organization’s premises in Spálené Poříčí, avoiding daily commuting. Pocket money of EUR 7/day is provided, and travel costs to/from the Czech Republic are reimbursed according to ESC limits. Lunch is served in the school canteen or volunteers may cook themselves. For free-time travel, bus services connect Spálené Poříčí with Plzeň and the national rail network.
