About the local hosting organization

"Values, Virtues, Integrity" Foundation (VVIF) is a Bulgarian non-governmental organization registered at the Sofia City Court on March 5, 2015, acting in the public interest. The main focus of the foundation lies on the enhancement of active citizenship, youth empowerment, social inclusion, and intercultural dialogue on local, national and international level. VVIF works directly and provides access to mobility programs abroad for young people with fewer opportunities. On the local level, we focus on empowering the young people from remote rural areas, develop inclusive programs and initiatives targeting marginalized young people and adults, we support youth's ability to participate actively in society. For this reason, we organize seminars, youth initiatives, and workshops related to overcoming the societal challenges nowadays. We strongly believe in the importance of non-formal education and experiential learning. On national level we organize youth campaigns, training, exhibitions (real and virtual) that raise awareness on the main social challenges that young people face nowadays. On the international level, we are part of dozens of stable partnerships and networks supported by various educational programmes and initiatives e.g. Erasmus+, Europe for citizens, the European Social Fund, etc.

Presentation of the program

During the project “Values, Virtues, Integrity” Foundation will host in Sofia, Bulgaria seven international volunteers and one in-country volunteer between 18 and 30 years old starting from September 11th 2025 to September 13th 2025 The "Colours of Solidarity" project is targeting young people with fewer opportunities, in order to promote diversity taking into account the characteristics of each country, cultural and interreligious dialogue of the common values of freedom, tolerance and respect for human rights. Main activities:Support the hosting organization in the process of organizing a festival in a "Borisova garden"city park in Sofia with a variety of artistic workshops for the local community; Support facilitators in delivering art and crafts workshops for young people ( no previous experience in arts needed); Organise city games and cleaning actions for the local community.

Pocket money Each volunteer will receive pocket money - 7€ per day for the 27 days of the project. Travel is covered by the project.

Requirements

The Participant profile: The project is open for young people facing all kinds of obstacles. The volunteering experience does not require participants to possess any specific skills and/or education. Since the hosting organization is intensively applying arts in social inclusion projects, we will highly appreciate volunteers who love arts and would like to develop in that field. The experience within the project would be quite suitable for proactive, extroverted young people with background or interest in social work. The volunteers need to understand English on a working level as it will be the official language of the project. The project aims to support the personal development of the volunteers in order to help them in developing crucial skills and competences for becoming active citizens of Europe. Applicants from Turkey can be selected only if they have a Green passport.

Extra information

The "Colours of Solidarity" project is proud to offer training opportunities for volunteers to learn the skills necessary to organize events and facilitate art workshops. Training Objectives: Learn the principles of event planning and organization Develop skills in facilitating art workshops and activities Understand the importance of community engagement and social cohesion Build confidence in leading and facilitating events and workshops Volunteers will take part in an on-arrival and pre-departure trainings facilitated by the hosting organisation.

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
