Volunteers in action for youth
Stichting Don Bosco Rijswijk
Rijswijk, Nederlandene
Beskrivelse
A day at Don Bosco = a day for action and new opportunities for volunteers and visitors. We are included in everyday life of the organization, preparing and developing games as well as creating new programs within a team of professionals, Dutch and other international volunteers. Together we make sure the place is safe and welcoming for everybody (for example: we do the dishes, clean the tables…)
During the school period we start the day with our lunch services where we spend lunch time with children at 2 nearby located school.
The volunteer takes care of preparing lunch, setting the rooms and organizing different leisure activities such as football, dodgeball and handcrafts in order to offer the children a safe, welcoming, learning and meaningful social experience. This is a good time for volunteers to test their pedagogical and didactical skills. After having a short evaluation we start to prepare for the afternoon activities like playing hours, social projects or workshops.
Logi, mad og transport
Participants will live in a flat/house with one other volunteer. Each has their own room or studio and they share
the kitchen, bathroom and living room. Each participant will receive the food allowance and pocket
money each month and a bike as a main form of transportation. The youth center is located approx. 10
min or 20 min from the house.

We will provide different workshops throughout the experience to make sure every individual is confident and comfortable in working at Don Bosco Rijswijk. For example: how to organize games, how to work as a professional youth worker, how to maintain boundaries and healthy relationships, how to animate.
We offer extra support for learning Dutch with inhouse language course. We value good communication and spend a lot of time and effort to organize activities which promote team building and multicultural
learning under the roof of Don Bosco organizations mission.
