Team volunteering projects in Hungary!

Location: Budapest, Hungary

Project name: School of Solidarity 2024 – Learning without Borders

Hosting organization: Egyesek Youth Association

Sending organization: “Common Sense” Youth Organization

Purpose of the project: Work with us to grant meaningful programmes for children who have been forced to flee Ukraine. Egyesek Youth Association organizes this volunteer program together with Migration Aid (MigAid) in their Learning Without Borders (LWB) project or Madridi Street Refugee Shelter. The aim of volunteering is most importantly to create and hold meaningful programs regularly that support the children’s development and studies, meanwhile helping with the everyday duties (lunch, cleaning) in the institution.  In the LWB project, arts and crafts or a hip-hop dance afternoon club for the small ones, and computer lessons for the older ones are just some of the possible classes that would improve their knowledge and spirit. In the Madridi shelter volunteers will help to run the refugee hostel, like taking care of the reception, helping with the dining room, taking care of the children, supporting learning in the study room, and organizing sports and leisure time activities.

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements: All volunteers will be accommodated in a hostel in Budapest. Lunch will be provided in the institution, and breakfast and dinner are self-organized, but covered by the project cost. The evenings and weekends will be free to explore the city of Budapest.

Training during the activity: Before the arrival, we will ask participants to complete a self-study course (child safeguarding). On the first Sunday, a one-day orientation training will be provided. This will be followed by mentoring sessions to support the learning and professional development of you. In the institution, LWB staff will provide further support if required.ffice Work and Universities activities. Volunteers will work individual in other activities.

Participant Profile: We are looking for motivated volunteers, who have a sense of empathy, patience, and experience to teach small kids and teenagers. Who are good at (nonverbal) communication and get along well with children from different age groups. This workcamp is especially suitable for volunteers who have an experience or are interested in working with children and refugees. It is an advantage if the volunteers have basic knowledge of Ukrainian or Russian language.
