💼 What the programme involves

Our youth organization is working mainly with kids and teens with the focus to support them and foster their strengths. This is mainly done during kids camps, special actions, sports and close cooperation with local entities, schools and the local church. Working very independant we offer the ESC volunteer a wide spectrum of work which may be individually adapted to his/her strengths and interests, including for example interesting IT tasks (mainting data base/member accounts, website, marketing on our social media plattforms), musical or theatrical projects with teens, sports actions and many more. We are free to adapt our programme to the skills and wishes of our volunteer and welcome new input and ideas.

🏠 Accommodation on site

We aim to offer accommodation in a flat to our volunteer. He/she will get extra money for food and transport. A bicycle is ready for you but also bus/train is available close by in order to reach the neighboring town of Ulm with approx. 150.000 inhabitants and the worlds tallest church tower. Even bigger cities like Stuttgart or Munich can be reached within 1 hour, same as Lake Contance or the Alpes.

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).
