– The volunteer will have the opportunity to suggest activities that interest them, either within the foundation or elsewhere. In the past, we’ve had a monthly movie club, a reading club, workshops for children promoting reading, cultural workshops about their home country, book distrubution. The creativity is welcomed.
– The volunteer will actively assist with the Foundation’s communication efforts, particularly through social media, helping with the creation of posters, and maintaining a presence on social media platforms in general.
– Volunteers will constantly be accompanied by some staff member and receive guidanceand support for the activities carried out.
Our motivation and volunteering experience
Our principal motivation is enrichment, that a foreign volunteer could contribute with its cultural and volunteer experiences exchange both in personal scope as in labor scope. We think that a volunteer also can enrich in its large experience of collaboration with our entity.
Everything in this cultural exchange will be both for volunteer and association members as the volunteer will do the same functions as other persons: classification and organization of the books, participation in the activities of our volunteers, organization of the materials and documentation. On the other hand, we want to give an opportunity to the European volunteer to become acquainted with our social and cultural environment.
Another important reasons are a support and help that lntercambia Youth organization offers in the process of the exchange of the volunteer.
What’s in It for You?
– Free Spanish language classes (Language and Culture), 1 ½ hour once or twice a week, given by a qualified volunteer, at an agreed time.
– Gain experience in useful skills for their professional future. The EVS provides skills and experiences, increases job possibilities and gives the chance of doing different works, so a choice is possible.
– Learn new skills. The EVS enables new challenges, know new people, new perspectives and ways of living which may encourage volunteers to reconsider their world perspectives.
– Secure and comfortable working environment, both in the hospital as in the Foundation; they both have all needed resources and both are secure.
