Ajankohtaisia EU-tuettuja vapaaehtoistiimejä

22.3.2023

Haluaisitko tehdä vapaaehtoistyötä Suomessa tai muualla Euroopassa? 

Järjestämme sekä  Suomessa että muissa maissa Euroopan solidaarisuusjoukkojen vapaaehtoistiimejä, joihin haemme  osallistujia. Vapaaehtoistiimissä tehdään käytännön vapaaehtoistyötä ja paljon muuta yhdessä noin kymmenen muun vapaaehtoisen kanssa. Osallistuminen onkin hyvä tapa tutustua uusiin ihmisiin ja paikkoihin, oppia uusia taitoja sekä tietysti tehdä työtä hyvän asian puolesta! 

Kuka voi hakea? Vapaaehtoistiimit on tarkoitettu 18-30 -vuotiaille. Rohkaisemme kaikenlaisista taustoista tulevia, Suomessa asuvia nuoria aikuisia hakemaan mukaan! Tiimeihin voi osallistua  suomalaisia ja muita Suomessa jo asuvia nuoria aikuisia sekä myös myös muista EU-maista tulevia vapaaehtoisia. Osallistujilla tulee olla täysi  koronarokotusssarja tai todistus sairastetusta virustaudista.

Mitä maksaa? Vapaaehtoistiimit ovat Euroopan unionin tukemia, joten osallistujien matkakulut korvataan, ohjelma, majoitus ja ruokailut järjestetään ja vapaaehtoiset saavat pientä taskurahaa. Osallistujalle itselleen ei siis tule  kuluja osallistumisesta.
