About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Since 2016, the Juszt-is teszEnk Foundation has been active in BEdvalenke. That was the year when the project began that earned the village the nickname "Fresco Village", as Roma painters transformed the walls of the houses into beautiful works of art. BEdvalenke is mostly inhabited by Roma people, whose only employment opportunity is public works. Over the years, several projects have been launched to support the disadvantaged local community. There are nearly 100 children living in BEdvalenke, making up half of the villages population.

💼 What the programme involves

Join an international team of volunteers and help organize a summer camp for children aged 3 to 18 As a volunteer, you can teach English, lead games and sports activities, while giving so much more: bringing joy, building trust, and boosting their self-confidence. The children will attend the activities in age-based groups every day from Monday to Friday. Join the dedicated team of the foundation and bring joy and learning into the lives of local children together

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accommodation will be provided at the foundation s house, where you can either camp in a tent or sleep in the community space. The house has two separate restrooms with showers. Activities with the children take place outdoors in the yard, so if you need a short break and the group size allows it, you can rest in the sleeping area.

🍲 Food

We will provide three meals a day (hot meals for lunch and dinner), with a vegetarian option available. Meals are always shared. Breakfast consists of cold food (e.g., sandwiches, boiled eggs, etc.), while lunch and dinner will be prepared together the night before. The weekly menu will be planned together during the preparatory meeting.

📍 About the location

Bedvalenke is a small village with approximately 230 residents, located in northern Hungary, in Borsod-AbaE j-ZemplEn County, near the Slovakian border, within the EdelEny district. It is close to Miskolc and surrounded by picturesque natural landscapes. This experience is not only about volunteering but also about connecting with the community, learning about Roma culture, and enjoying meaningful moments with fellow volunteers.

ℹ️ Additional information

Two weeks before the camp starts, we will hold an online preparatory meeting on a Monday evening to finalize the weekly program, ensuring we have all necessary materials. After the camp, there will also be an online reflection session where we will discuss our experiences. It would be great if you could join these as well
