In the organization we have two day care centers for kids. We work with 6-11 year old children.

Main volunteer’s tasks: - To spend some time individually with a child; - To help children in doing homework, make handicrafts, to teach foreign language in day care center; - To organize creative workshops in day care center; - To attend events in the city with some children; - Every two months go with children to weekend trips in Lithuania; - To help in the organization, to organize some evening or other events (Christmas festival, Easter festival, cinema evenings, etc...); - To help organize summer camp for socially disadvantages children; - To participate and together organize activities which come out from own initiatives of Lithuanian young people and the volunteer.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The amount of reimbursement depends on the distance between sending and hosting countries. Volunteer will live in a shared apartment together with other volunteers or students. All the utilities are going to be payed by the organization. Volunteers are going to be provided with monthly amount of food and pocket money and a local transportation monthly ticket.

🎒 Leisure activities

Volunteer is going to have few type of training: - pre-departure meeting or training organized by the sending organization before the departure; - On-arrival training organized by Lithuanian National Agency during the first month of arrival. Depending on the origin country some of volunteers are going to be provided by the training after they will come back to their countries.

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).
