About the project

New energy! II (Monar Gaudynki, near Ełk, Masurian Lakes)

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

SCI Poland has been successfully co-operating with Monar for 19 years already. Monar is the biggest Polish NGO dealing mainly with drug addicts. Monar runs 30 stationary centers of rehabilitation in different parts of Poland, 5 of them specialized in the therapy of young people. The Gaudynki centre is one of them. It's situated in the picturesque area of the Kingdom of the Great Masurian Lakes in the north-eastern part of Poland, among fields and forests, far away from the hectic cities. In the Monar Gaudynki there are about 30 patients, between 20-30 years old, who work and live together undergoing a group one-year long therapy.

💼 What the programme involves

The main task of volunteers is to socialize with the community, by helping them in their everyday work (gardening, cleaning, working in the kitchen, renovating etc.) and taking part in leisure time activities with them. Games, camp-fires, sport activities, workshops with/for the residents will bring fresh energy and relaxation to the centre. Probably during the second week volunteers go together with the patients on a camping trip to the beautiful area on the lakeside.

🏠 Accommodation on site

In the house of the community, in one or two rooms and in big tents during camping trip.
