There can be noticed new chances for development of the institution, both the individual competences development and systemic, institutional activities. We would like to show that thanks to taking part in the European volunteers` programs there are other possibilities and chances for volunteers, who work in our Centre (at different age, such as pupils from primary schools, students from high schools, students, working people and unemployed). What is more, we would like to inspire the community to look at the social problems. The situation in our region is difficult that is why our motivation is bigger. The Kowala community is a rural community with a big level of unemployment, especially among young people, that is why the voluntary activity is a chance of supporting them, of young people`s development, of teaching them about different cultures, of improving life experience, of enabling them to find work. The European voluntary activity will give young people the chance to spend their free time in different way, which will help to create global community, opened for other people. Moreover, multinational contacts give the opportunity of development, new contacts, knowledge and experience.Our institution would like to expect three volunteers, who like contacts with other people, have the ability to work with children, teenagers, adults, elderly people and disabled people. They should be open-minded, eager to learn and to teach. Musically gifted volunteers will be appreciated.
