About the Workcamp

Egyesek Youth Association organizes this volunteer program together with the Foundation. They started to work in in 2016, this was the year when the project began that earned the village the nickname "Fresco Village", as Roma painters transformed the walls of the houses into beautiful works of art. Bódvalenke is mostly inhabited by Roma people, whose only employment opportunity is public works. Over the years, several projects have been launched to support the disadvantaged local community. There are nearly 100 children living in Bódvalenke, making up half of the village’s population.
We’re on the lookout for 8 passionate volunteers to better the lives of marginalized children from the Roma community. You will play a vital role in organizing a summer camps for children aged 3 to 18!

The children will attend the activities in age-based groups every day from Monday to Friday. Join the dedicated team of the foundation and bring joy and learning into the lives of local children together!
