Formação: Our projects aim at fostering youth creativity, innovation and active involvement in the activities of the Youth Information Centre and the life of the Municipality in general. During their EVS project the volunteers working with our local youth will help children and youth from disadvantaged families, children at risk through art, music, non-formal education and different initiatives and projects to get better integrated into the society and among their peers.

Apart from that our project will contribute to fighting dependencies such as drugs, alcohol and cigarettes addictions as the volunteers will develop various prevention campaigns. In their free time the local youth will be involved in our clubs - Eco Club, Club Debate and Art Club and this way they will forget about their bad habbits. The project activities will also aim at fostering tolerance and mutual understanding, fighting stereotypes and discrimination as the children from the Orphanage in Kalofer are in disadvantaged social condition, of varios ethnic background and children at risk.

The team of our oprganisation will help and support all initiatives and activities which the volunteers might wish to implement.
