- We organize a conference in Poznań, Poland to recruit 10 Polish volunteers and train them - With the new volunteers we fundraise, build local partnerships and recruit 20 foreign volunteers - Foreign volunteers come and work with rural youth
We target 5 rural schools, 150 pupils in each. Through direct contacts, young students will boost kids horizons and imagination. Besides supplying the children for the future, the project develops volunteers' experience and counteracts prejudices.
