📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Eveho Foundation, based in Sabadell, Barcelona since 2002, promotes and develops projects and actions that enable social and occupational integration and inclusion of young people at risk of social exclusion, focusing on youth tutored and formerly tutored. The pedagogical lines from the Foundation are: • Promoting freedom and respect for the rest of the community, without distinction of race or creed, focusing on all initiatives, which make coexistence an experience of respect for everything around us whether people, spaces, or cultures. • Training people to make their choices and opinions to the ethical, moral, and religious issues that surround us and that many of them assume as out of reach, precisely because of the way in which they live them. • Promoting positive experiences that are tailored to the specific needs of children in situations of social marginalization. The Foundation aims to: 1. Promote projects that facilitate the employment of people at risk of social exclusion. 2. Ensure consistency in the intervention with the target group. 3. Ensure training activities as an educational resource and social integration and provide adequate training for future professionals. 4. Create platforms with other entities or administrations. 5. Raise awareness of companies from the labor market so they can be receptive to the inclusion of people of the indicated group above.

ℹ️ Additional information

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).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project
  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
  • Youth Pass and SVI international Volunteer passport
