About the project

ESC: Summer camp at Fecskefészek

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The Via-Viridis Association operates the Swallow Nest after-school (Fecskefészek Tanoda) in Pilisvörösvár, Hungary. Their program is primarily aimed at children (aged 7 to 16) who struggle to fit into the education system and come from disadvantaged backgrounds. Their goal is not only to support the children in their studies but also to develop their social skills, helping them achieve long-term success in the job market. Help make the summer camp a reality for children aged 7 to 16 by joining an international team of volunteers and making a lasting impact on their lives. The camp takes place within a Reformed Christian community, where prayer will be part of the daily program. As a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to teach English, lead games and sports activities, and most importantly, foster joy, trust, and confidence in the children. Join us in creating a brighter future for these kids—one filled with laughter, learning, and endless opportunities!

🏠 Accommodation on site

All volunteers will be accommodated in shared two-bed rooms in Budapest, requiring a daily commute to Pilisvörösvár, which takes approximately one hour each way. We will provide a public transport pass to cover the commute. We provide two meals a day (cold breakfast and hot meals for lunch), with a vegetarian option available. Each volunteer will also receive €7 per day as pocket money and 5 EUR per day food allowance to cover the dinner. Travel costs to the project location will be reimbursed based on the distance after participation. All necessary equipment for the tasks will be provided.

🎒 Leisure activities

From Friday till Sunday an orientation training (movement, sports and games and facilitation skills) will be provided by an experienced Egyesek staff member. This will be followed by mentoring sessions to support the learning and professional development of you. In the institution school staff will provide further support if required.

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).
