European Voluntary Service (EVS)
Interessierst du dich für den Europäischen Freiwilligendienst und bist du auf der Suche nach einem EFD-Projekt oder einer Sendeorganisation?
Der Europäische Freiwilligendienst (=EFD) bietet jungen Leuten (18 -30 Jahre) die Möglichkeit, für 6-12 Monate ein EU-Land intensiv zu entdecken, an einem Projekt mitzuwirken und neue Erfahrungen, Kompetenzen, Eindrücke und Sprachkenntnisse zu gewinnen.
Für dich als Freiwillige/n ist der Einsatz kostenlos: Reisekosten, Taschengeld, Unterkunft und Verpflegung, Versicherung und Sprachkurs sind inklusive. Das Kindergeld wird weiterhin gezahlt, da es sich um einen sog. "geregelten" Freiwilligendienst handelt.
