About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

We are a Catholic parish in the 15. district of Vienna. We regard our parish work as not limited through any culture, religion, party or nationality. Especially as believers we experience working with all people of good will as an enrichment. One main working area is in various children and youth groups, summer camps and special events to learn solidarity and develop a strong and healthy personality. Apart from this structured youth work our organisation is a link in a system of open youth work in our area. Additionally our organisation takes part in the struggle against poverty and social exclusion, with a project LeO, where poor people can come once a week and buy for the symbolic prize of 4 Euro food and can get social expert advice. We are busy in help for ukrains - providing rooms, cooking weekly for more than 100 people, etc. An extra benefit is the possibility for volunteers to gain experiences in the intercultural and interreligious dialog and measures against loneliness

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accommodation is in the second floor of our parish center in a single room. You share kitchen and bathroom with three other people. Food: During the week we have common lunch, that we take from the kindergarten. Rest of the time you can prepare in your kitchen. Local transport: Your work place is also your living address.

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).
