📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Salva Vita Foundation was established in 1993 with the mission to foster the inclusion of disabled people into society and to build an inclusive and diverse society. The focus of the organization is to support disabled people into open employment and help them to live independently. The organization has 14 colleagues (and 1 dog), and is working with many external experts, including disabled people. The organization also works with volunteers. 1. Services for disabled clients Salva Vita has introduced Supported Employment in Hungary in 1996. Supported Employment is a highly personalized methodology that provides tailored-to-the needs support for both the employers and those looking for a job. 2. “Disability-smart” service package for employers Salva Vita developed a comprehensive service package to build disability-smart companies. Experience shows that the combination of the services described beneath, have contributed to a growing number of disabled employees at workplaces. 3. Social Enterprise We run a place, called Szeglet, a Community & Experience Space. Beside the services provided by the café and conference rooms a unique gastro kitchen suitable for cooking together, organizing team building events also available. One of the key elements of Szeglet is the employment of people with disabilities in the building.

💼 What the programme involves

Inclusive Summer Volunteer Camp in Budapest 9–22 July (+ travel days) Join our 2-week ESC volunteer camp organized by Salva Vita Foundation in Budapest! This unique program brings together young people aged 18–30, with and without disabilities, to learn from each other and practice essential everyday life skills that support independent living. During the weekdays, volunteers will work together on improving and maintaining our inclusive community space – through activities like gardening, cooking, cleaning, and small repairs. Alongside the practical work, we’ll focus on personal growth, teamwork, and building a supportive community. The camp offers a safe, welcoming environment where inclusion and cooperation are key. With only 20 spots available (Hungarian and international participants), it’s a great chance to be part of a close-knit and meaningful experience this summer.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Participation is fully free. International participants will have their travel and accommodation arranged. You'll stay in a private dorm nearby (double rooms, apartments for four). Individual support—such as mentoring, coaching, personal assistance or psychological help—is available and tailored to your needs.

🍲 Food

You’ll receive daily pocket money (6 EUR/day) and all meals are covered—lunch is cooked together, and you’ll get an allowance for the rest.

ℹ️ Additional information

The group vonunteering actively addresses the issue of inclusion and diversity as one of the challenges facing society. A range of activities will allow you to meet and work with young people with special needs, such as those with autism. The activity is a great help in developing independent living skills.

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).
