🏢 About the local organisation
SOS Children’s Villages are a global charity, politically and religiously independent, working to prevent family breakdown and protect and care for children who have lost parental care. SOS works to ensure that the rights of all children, in every society, are respected and fulfilled.The children are growing up in family houses where their own brothers and sisters can stay together. Currently, the organisation is active in 134 countries. In Hungary it provides loving home for 400 children and youngsters. Útilapu - SCI Hungary started to cooperate with SOS Hungary 3 years ago. It will be the 2nd year when an international voluntary workcamp is organised in the Kőszeg Children Village. Volunteers will help to organise and carry out daily and leisure time activities for the little children.
💼 What the programme involves
The volunteers will plan, organise and carry out daily tasks (f.e. cooking, helping to clean.) as well as free time activities (f.e. sport events, art workshops, language and music games, excursions, etc) in the summer camp for kindergarden aged children. It's going to be the 2nd international workcamp in the Kőszeg Village, so we expect volunteers to be proactive, participating enthusiasticly in the creation of a positive experience for the kids and the co-workers in the Village. The summer camp is organised for children while their foster parents are on their yearly leave, SOS co-workers and 2 trained campleaders will be assisting the whole time. The volunteers are asked to make a presentation about their home country for the international evenings. Arrival day is the 10th of July.
