Resumo: The Foundation is a non-governmental organisation, which founded in 1992. Our aim is to provide a living for people with difficulties - especially people living with disabilities. Essential for the idea of the foundation is the belief in the future of each disabled. Our organisation is controlled by a board with 7 members. The foundation wants to offer the opportunity for disabled adults to be full and appreciated members of society instead of isolated. For this reason we have a workshop for disabled people since 1993, which is located in a small village in Southern Hungary, near to the Serbian border.

In 1999 we founded a small group home for 8 mentally retarded people. There are 5 helpers working in the house. Two of them life there, too and share their daily life’s with the disabled people, as will the volunteer, too.
There are many programs in the house and outside, we are very open and often are visited by friends and different volunteers, who also help us a lot.

Perfil: Age:18-30

Tarefas: The placement is working with disabled and assists in a workshop.
Hosting volunteer will enable the placement to carry out work with added intercultural dimensions.
The volunteer can bring new ideas and different ways to provide social services. The voluntary service will be a challenge as a learning process for the volunteer of his or herself.
It will be an opportunity to take time out of the familiar environment and do something different, to provide practical or professional experience, but also to reflect and re-evaluate next steps (his/ her future orientation). The volunteer becomes an essential part of the daily life.

He/she will be welcomed by his/her mentor. When the volunteer starts at the workshop they will go through an induction period. They will be given information about the organisation, project, activities, and members. At all times the volunteers will be supported through a supervisor and will have regular meetings with their mentor to monitor and evaluate the project and deal with any problems arising. Volunteers are encouraged to use their own interests and experiences to set up personal initiatives and new activities for service users. Also, through the
work itself, they will learn about how other communities live and work in other parts of the world and the inter-relationships between Europe and less developed countries, both economic and cultural.

He/she will work 30 hours a week. The volunteer’s main task is to frame the disabled people’s free time in a way that entertains and supports them in their abilities. This includes sport programs (riding, swimming, cycling, walking), creative programs and other activities, such as playing, singing, reading, painting … The volunteer can bring in his/her ideas in this program. There is a lot of room in the house and many sport, music and creative means. The volunteer also will help in the everyday life of the community. One day a week the volunteer can go to the workshop with the disabled people and help there. The program changes during the year, depending on different holidays and seasons. The volunteer also can take part in excursions, which we frequently make.

This is an example for the working hours, but it can change when we organise different events and programs.
8.00 -8.30 Preparation for the morning tasks
8.30 -9.00 Gymnastics, collection of all necessary things for the start: proper clothing passes etc.
16.30-18:00 The volunteer will be asked to do some creative work at the house, like preparation and cooking together
20:00- Every evening the mentor will help the volunteer to reflect on the day, personal issues etc.

We organise once a month a meeting with all staff, where the volunteer will be also invited. The volunteer will help the creative activities in workshop 2 times a week, every Wednesday and Friday. There the volunteer will help making candles, do simple rhythm activities, from 8:30-16:30. During these days the volunteer will get lunchin. The volunteer will get a monthly ticket to use public transportation.
