The project venue:
The Youth Information Point is located in the centre of the village, in the renewed Integrated Community Center (IKSZT). It is very well-equipped infrastructural (6 PC for community use, scanner, fax, printers, camera, etc.) and divided into 4 functional spaces: 1. community internet place with PCs, 2. place for discussions, meetings, 3. place for watching TV, movies, playing guitar hero, 4. place for community plays (billiard, table football). In addition we got two offices for administrational activities. It is open in Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 2.30p.m. to 7.30p.m., in Friday from 2.30p.m. to 9.30p.m. and in Saturday from 3.30p.m. to 9.30p.m. So the volunteers have free days in Sunday and Monday!
We also operate our own website: www.bordanynet.hu. We take active part in the social life of Bordány. Within the Association we have one subgroups: the Bordány Amateur Drama Circle (Borány Amatőr Színjátszó Kör/BASZK). We established a small gym in the town in 2011 June, with all the necessary equipments in 30 square meters. It is opened for the public for free use on 3 days of the week from 4pm until 8pm. It is near to the school's gym so the showering and dressing room is solved as well.As the organization had set up a charity called Egerhaz Charity, which has built the Vadgesztenye Youth Hostel, the volunteers of our organization also help in running the hostel. The hostel is located in the centre of the town, in the attic of the local restaurant. This is also going to be the home of the volunteer. Everybody can find every needed information about the hostel on the www.facebook.com/vadgesztenyehostel link.
Food and accommodation:
The accommodation is going to be provided in one house of the village, which is a newly renovated house with all the needed equipments. If the volunteers have the same gender, they will share one room, if they have different gender, they will be separated in different rooms. They will have kitchen and bathroom to share with each other nevertheless, they will live there by themselves. Volunteers will get a lunch during weekdays in the local restaurant, then they can buy food for themselves from the local shop and groceries and cook by themselves if they wish in the weekends. The host organisation will pay for their food in the shop and the groceries.
Language learning:
Private teacher will be provided to the volunteers in order to learn Hungarian. In the first 3 months there will be an intensive course, then it will be run based on the needs of the volunteers. Then volunteers have to practice the language with colleagues and target group as well.
Local transport:
In Bordány there is no need for local transport because it is everything is in the centre. Then if they need to go out to the farm, we can provide bicycles or give a ride. If they have to do something in Szeged which is linked to our project, we will pay for the bus ticket or give a ride by car.
