🏢 About the local organisation
SCI Poland has been successfully co-operating with Monar for over 20 years. Monar is the largest Polish NGO which helps people in difficult life circumstances, especially those socially excluded and those with drug addiction problems. Monar runs 30 centers of rehabilitation in different parts of Poland, 5 of them specialising in the therapy of young people. The center in Marianówek is one of them. It has a community of 70 young people, aged 15-25, coming from different backgrounds and areas of Poland, who take part in one-year on-site therapy. Beside dealing with daily life activities we use many different artistic, sport and outdoor events as tools in the process of therapy and rehabilitation.
💼 What the programme involves
The main task of volunteers is to socialise with the community by helping them in their everyday work (farm activities like gardening, taking care of animals, renovating, cleaning, kitchen shift, etc.), taking part in planned community events. Volunteers are more than welcome to share their interests and skills, organising workshops, games or any other sort of activities they would like to propose.
It is possible that for a few days during the workcamp volunteers will go with the patients on a camping trip to the area near the sea/lakeside.
🏠 Accommodation on site
