💼 What the programme involves

The project "Ayuda Directa a las Necesidades" (ADN) in Seville, for more than ten years, we help to meet the basic needs of families with few resources through the weekly distribution of food, hygiene products and clothing. The following procedure is followed: food and other products donated by the Food Bank, supermarkets, restaurants and individuals are stored and classified in the CI Sevilla building and subsequently distributed to beneficiaries. The distribution of food is carried out in two ways, depending on the type of person receiving it: at home, by means of periodic visits to families in households with dependent persons, Where the beneficiaries of the programme come every week to collect their food from the shed.

This activity is designed for the volunteer to support the operation of the ADN project for 5 months. The volunteer will help organize procedures from Monday to Thursday in the ship with a schedule of 9:00 to 15:00. On Fridays, generally speaking, the volunteer will help in the management of the project from the CI office in Seville. Through his participation, the volunteer will not only provide support to families in need, but also develop skills such as intercultural communication, project and people management.

The volunteer will use public transport or bicycle. Pocket money will be 6 euros per day, plus money for accommodation and travel.

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
