FUNDATIA ROMANIAN ANGEL APPEAL - APELUL INGERULUI ROMAN Bucharest, Romania Volunteer opportunity: Youth Worker at Romanian Angel Appeal Youth Hub
Tasks Summary
- Our story began over 30 years ago, inspired by Olivia Harrison, who gathered global support for children in Romanian orphanages. Since then, RAA has helped thousands of children, young people and adults live healthy, independent lives despite social or medical challenges. Built on three pillars (education, health, and social inclusion) we’ve grown together with democratic Romania: from strengthening the health system in the 1990s to building European partnerships today. In recent years, we’ve opened a youth centre in Bucharest, where we run non-formal learning activities, youth exchanges and networking events. Our Youth Team supports young people to learn, travel and bring their ideas to life. We’re now looking for a volunteer to join our communication team in Bucharest. More about us: https://raa.ro/en/ Accommodation, food and transport arrangements Volunteers will share a cosy 2-room apartment (2 people/apartment) in a friendly area with easy access to public transport. They’ll receive 300 €/month for food and 120 €/month pocket money. If needed, an RAA team member can join them for weekly shopping. RAA covers travel costs to and from Bucharest at the beginning and end of the project, as well as local public transport during the stay. Training during the activity Volunteers will receive hands-on training from the RAA Youth Team to develop facilitation and communication skills for working with young people and creating non-formal activities. Each volunteer will have a mentor to support them during their stay, help with cultural integration, and explore the city. A volunteer coordinator from RAA will also guide them in joining the team and completing their tasks.
