About the project

ESC: Solidarity Matters

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

This project is developed in response to the needs of children and youth who attend Caritas daycare centers, senior centers in Trójmiasto and also the handicapped benefiting from the support of the Caritas center. Our project is created for youth and children having difficult backgrounds plus those who cannot afford to travel abroad, thus limiting their opportunities to meet people from other countries. CAG will host six volunteers for twelve months in Poland, Together, the volunteers will work with their coordinators while organizing activities for the protégés. We expect them to contribute towards preparing the program and its realization. Activities will be organized towards cultural, educational, sport and outdoor themes which also will include helping the elderly with everyday life. We are open to the volunteers’ ideas; especially related to their culture, language and tradition.
