ESC Long Therm Project-Growing Together: Schools & After-School Adventures
REGIONALNE CENTRUM WOLONTARIATU
KIELCE, Poland
Description
Spend up to 12 months in Kielce and level up your life while living abroad. This is way more than just volunteering, it’s a chance to gain real experience, meet amazing people from different cultures, and figure out if working with children is your thing. You’ll support teachers in schools and after school spaces, work directly with kids, and learn by actually doing, not just sitting through boring theory. During the project, you’ll build confidence, communication, teamwork, leadership, creativity, and problem-solving skills that will help you in literally any future job. What makes this project extra special? The exclusive workshops only available for participants: self-defense, first aid, and communication + assertiveness training with a psychologist. These are real-life skills you’ll use long after the project ends. You’ll leave with unforgettable memories, international friendships, stronger self-confidence, and experience that will make your CV stand out big time.
