💼 What the programme involves

The volunteers will collaborate in the requalification of the building that during the last two years has been abandoned by the community because of the pandemic. Alongside with the manual work, volunteers will be encouraged to express their artistic side and share it in the Policaffe. This renovation consists of easy works, like wall painting and wood creations. Once the structure is ready, it will be used as a place to meet up for the young people, to spend time together and also as a place for intergenerational projects. Volunteers are going to work about 5 hrs/day for 5 days/week, but if someone is willing to do more than that, theyre more than welcome
