📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

IBO Italy is an NGO operating in Italy since 1957. Our mission is to promote the access to education and learning as fundamental rights and opportunities for the growth and wellbeing of the whole community, and to involve young people in volunteering and solidarity projects, to foster social commitment, participation and responsibility.

💼 What the programme involves

Volunteers will carry out a variety of tasks including the following: gardening, cutting and arranging wood, maintaining fences and fences, arranging animal sheds, arranging vineyards, arranging common areas, general cleaning, overhauling fixtures and furniture, painting, building work (flooring), restoring furniture.

Workdays could be organized at other Le C.A.S.E. structures. There will also be workshops on the preparation of pizza and typical Tuscan dishes, meetings on the theme of migration, ethical finance and solidarity economy.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Rooms equipped with mattresses are provided at the community. The volunteers are asked to help in turns with the cooking and the cleaning. The lifestyle will be simple with possible common outings in the city or countryside.

📍 About the location

The project takes place in Vicchio, 35 km from Florence.

🎒 Leisure activities

At the edge of the land owned by the house there is a very evocative deconsecrated chapel (Cappella della Bruna, in the Association s logo).
500 meters from the house is the hill of Vespignano, with the remains of the medieval castle and a parish church. Aiasanta is relatively close to:
• Barbiana, home of Don Milani s school (20min drive).
• Lake Barberino (20min drive) where you can swim in summer
There will also be moments of entertainment with football and volleyball matches, dances and an evening viewing of films in the open air.
