About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Hét Kútforrás Social Foundation works to prevent the cycle of extreme poverty and promote social inclusion, shared responsibility, and equal opportunities. In Heves County, it operates several Tanoda after-school centres, providing safe, supportive spaces where disadvantaged children and families can learn, grow, and build confidence through educational and creative activities.Volunteers will support the summer camps organized by the Hét Kútforrás Foundation, mainly for disadvantaged Roma children. The activities usually take place in the afternoons and are held at three locations: Pétervására, Szajla, and Erdőkövesd. Most of the children are between 6 and 10 years old. The program includes games, creative workshops, sports, and lots of fun together. The children especially love singing and dancing, so volunteers who are happy to teach songs or dances from their own culture are very welcome.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers will be accommodated in the dormitory of the secondary school in Pétervására, in shared rooms with three beds. Three meals per day are provided (with hot meals for lunch and dinner), and a vegetarian option is also available. Each volunteer will also receive €7 per day as pocket money. Travel costs to the project location will be reimbursed based on the distance traveled 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).
