Volunteers who choose to be part of this amazing project will assist at a children's center on the outskirts of the Albanian capital, Tirana. The center welcomes children from various parts of the suburbs of Tirana, primarily from the Roma community, street children, and those at risk of exploitation. Many families have migrated from different regions of Albania, mainly from the north, to Tirana in search of better living conditions and job opportunities.
The project offers these vulnerable children the opportunity to receive an education, learn life skills, participate in sports and fun activities such as arts and games, and enjoy nutritious meals, things that are often difficult for them to access. Volunteers help by teaching, playing, and inspiring these wonderful children.
This incredible project provides a safe and happy space for vulnerable children to learn and grow. Within the walls of the community center, children are in a positive environment where they can be themselves, free from the discrimination they face in mainstream society. Currently, around 40-50 children attend the center, where they are divided into two groups based on their age (7 to 11 years and 12 to 16 years).

Example of a Workday:
A volunteer's workday typically lasts between 4 and 6 hours. While we ask all volunteers to be flexible, a typical day might look like this:
Throughout the day, there will be tea and lunch breaks, but the timing of these can change based on the needs of the local staff and the number of volunteers present.
In the evenings, volunteers are welcome to explore the area or simply relax with other volunteers.
