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.

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.

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.

Πρόγραμμα εθελοντισμού: EVS Project in Bucharest, Romania

Asociatia Tineri Romani Europeni (A.T.R.E.), a local NGO from Bucharest, Romania (EI Ref 2013-RO-92), is looking for volunteers!!!

The dead line for our project is 1st of October 2013, the date when our project will be submitted to our National Agency for evaluation and approval.

Our project is called "S.M.A.R.T – Simply just Make A Romanian Trip", and it's going to start in April 2014, for a 9 months period.

The project was born from our organization's desire to bring the youngsters from our local communities, where the project is going to be implemented, one step closer to European Union and its youngsters.

Nowdays romanian youngsters are facing a series of problems that can affect them on long time perspective.

Put it on briefly, some of the problmes that they are facing are:

- youngsters don't care much about the environment and are not taking any actions for preserving or cleaning it;
- the youngster perception about European Union is very low and they don't have good knowledge about the role of Romania as a state member is about, and also about their role in the society as European citizens;
- most of the youngsters know very little about the other countries that are EU members and about other countries outside EU;
- the gap between Roma youngsters and the other youngsters is very deep, both ethnics are manifesting low tolerance for the other, situation that should not exist in the "European Family";
- a lot of kids are left home only with their grandparents, because the parents are working outside Romania's borders, a thing that has major repercussions in the youngster life, affecting them on a personal, social
or educational level; etc.

For the reasons mentioned above and more, our organization decided to develop this EVS. Through this project our organisation will try to solve some of the problems that our youngsters are confronting with, by working with volunteers and developing a series of activities. The activities developed inside this project are going to be conducted on several plans: working in schools and highschools with youngsters, working in special schools with youngsters with disabilityes (mobility problems, blind youngsters, hearing problems, etc.), art and culture work in insitutions and centers that are working with youngsters (dance, theatre, photography, organising concerts, music, etc.), ecological campaigns, workshops, etc.
