Volunteering for internationals

ABOUT THE EVENT

Workshop: ”Volunteering for internationals” by MOOIWERK


Volunteering comes in all shapes and sizes. From driver to a buddy, from short projects to volunteer work where you can give your heart and soul every week. Volunteering is for everyone! Young, old, educated or not. And from practical craftsmanship to analytical thinkers. In short, something for everyone.

Do you want to get to know yourself better, use your talent for your city, or are you looking for new contacts or a challenge? Everything is possible. Discover what the options are and what suits you! Join this meeting and learn more about voluntary work in Breda.

About the program

We have invited active international volunteers who come to share their personally story about volunteering in Breda and how it helped them to integrate in a new environment. MOOIWERK also invites organizations from Breda too, this gives both parties, you and the organization a chance to meet each other. Who knows, maybe this creates an opportunity to make an appointment for further steps in doing voluntary work.
