Our activities are based on volunteering. Would you like to contribute? To volunteer with us, you must have a commitment and willingness to help others. If you are fluent in several languages, this is a great advantage. The same applies to professional knowledge in health, education, law and ICT. But this is not a requirement for becoming a volunteer. The most important thing is that you have the ability to be generous and empathetic towards others.
Would you like to volunteer? Or do you know someone who might be interested? Feel free to get in touch!
Are you looking for a job? If so, as a volunteer with us you can gain experience and knowledge that can be useful and increase your chances of success. You will also receive a certificate confirming that you have contributed as a volunteer.
