About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

As a volunteer in Ylivieska volunteer will primarily work in the youth center. We have youth house “Holvi” where are our offices and almost all our activities happen. In the youth center,volunteers support the local workers in all kinds of activities. Depending on the day, children and teenagers between 8 and 18 years old will come to the youth center after school or later in the evening. They visit the youth center in their free time and there is always at least one prepared program, which is a game, baking, cooking, watching a movie etc. There is also a snack at some opening hours. The program is always prepared in advance and of course, you can contribute with your ideas. There is also billiard, video games, air hockey, ping-pong, kicker, board games, etc. which the children and teenagers can play by themselves or together with you. Work is mainly at evenings, sometimes also at weekends.

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).
