SUMMER IN THE CITY 1

The Summer in the City VT aims to support families facing financial difficulties by providing creative activities to children through experiential processes and workshops, enhancing their skills and talents. The volunteering team involves working with children (ages 6 to 12), daily for approximately 5 hours during their summer holidays at their school. You will support the educational activities defined by the educators (sports activities, workshops, artistic events, theatrical plays, and many more). Volunteers are also very welcome to even implement their own activity ideas. What the program offers to volunteers: • Covered expenses:  Further to the covered expenses volunteers will be insured during these two weeks, however it’s important to hold or apply for an EHIC (European Health) card. • Support and guidance: Trained leaders will be on the spot and will provide 24-hour support to the volunteers, while qualified educators will contribute to the volunteers’ training for the program’s implementation. • Participation certificate: Volunteers will receive a participation certificate upon completion of the program, detailing all acquired skills. • Skill development: Volunteers will gain valuable experience and skills in children’s creative activities, which can enhance their resumes and help with their professional development. • Cultural exchange: Through collaboration with volunteers from different countries, participants will have the opportunity to learn about different cultures and make friendships with people from all over the world. • Personal development: By participating in the vt, volunteers will experience something that will help them develop their confidence, teamwork, and leadership skills.
