Resumo: The hosting organization was started in 1993 and since 1997 it has functioned as an independent association. It is an non-profit institution based on coorperation, professionalism and social commitment. Our goal is to popularize the idea of volunteering and civic activity for organizations, institutions and people, as well as comprehensive support for people and institutions interested in such activity. We cooperate with over 3 000 volunteers.
Our mission directs our actions to create strong civil, active and participative society, based on the principles of equality.
Our goal is to reach the inhabitants and the surrounding area regardless of their age, gender, education or social status. The main permanent programs of the organization are:
- Leading the Volunteer Center - mediation between non-governmental organizations and institutions willing to engage volunteers
- Senior Fund - implemented since 2013, the project is created as a response to the low level of voluntary involvement of older people. The fund is based on a mini-grant mechanism. The purpose of this project is to co-finance initiatives / events proposed by seniors
- Employee volunteering - as part of the program, we stimulate and activate representatives of the private sector in order to create actions dedicated for the local community and the city.
- Event volunteering - supporting large sports events both in their service and in the city's support in the public space (including the Handball World Championships of Men EHF Euro 2016, Marathons, triathlons), supporting cultural and civil events, conferences, etc.
Our center also implements other programs in order to reach the largest possible audience, including such programs as School Volunteering, Volunteer Week or Volunteer Program at the European Solidarity Center.
