Fundacja CAT's PurrfectVibe

Activity description

Volunteers will prepare classes for children and adults, focusing on language instruction in their own mother tongue such as English, Spanish, or Italian to enhance communication skills. They will also organize educational workshops, including seasonal camps like Catventures and Eurocamps for youth engagement. Additionally, volunteers will facilitate small projects in the local community, emphasizing adaptability and idea realization. Cultural representation to promote openness and challenge stereotypes is essential. The role also involves advocating for sustainability, promoting European values, and engaging youth in community projects. Volunteers are committed to developing innovative methods for interacting with children and young individuals. Lastly, they will organize events and oversee diverse activities during the European Week festival and CAT Festival.

Volunteers will reside in fully furnished shared flats, complete with spacious rooms and a communal space that includes a backyard. Every two weeks, volunteers receive pocket money and a food allowance (Per ESC guide 2023).

Furthermore, volunteers are covered by Henner health insurance.
