About the project
The Polish Robert Schuman Foundation is searching for 17 volunteers who would like to join
our European Solidarity Corps project “Schuman Solidarity Crew” from October 2020 to
June/August 2021 in Poland.
Volunteers will be hosted in 8 different hosting organizations:
- 2 special kindergartens for children with disabilities (Warsaw),
- special kindergarten for visually impaired children (Warsaw),
- regular kindergarten for children with special nutritional needs (Warsaw),
- primary school with integrative classes (Warsaw),
- Association of Developing Children’s Activity “Chance” – ngo focusing on providing the best possible development, increasing the educational conditions for children and raising the quality of work in early childhood education (Warsaw),
- European Integration Club at the School Complex in Wojkowice – non-formal
European education for members of European Integration Club and school students (Wojkowice in the Silesian region), - The Polish Robert Schuman Foundation in Warsaw.
WHO ARE WE SEARCHING FOR?
Volunteers aged between 18 and 30 years, legally residing in one of the participating and partner countries. We seek a balance of varied ages, genders and nationalities amongst our volunteers. All candidates must be registered in European Solidarity Corps database.
No specific knowledge, skills or experience is required as the necessary ones can be acquired during the project. We are not looking for experienced volunteers but those who would learn a lot during the service in a particular hosting organization and are strongly motivated.
Apart from the personal motivation of volunteers, our requirement is volunteers’ strong will of learning the Polish language after the selection procedure successfully ends. We need the selected volunteers to know a few crucial phrases. Why is this important? Because they will work with children with disabilities and youth, which often do not speak English well or any other language.
COMMON ACTIVITIES
To integrate all volunteers, apart from activities in particular hosting organization, common activities for all Schuman Volunteers will be organized. All Schuman volunteers:
- will write blogs dedicated to their experience in the form of articles, photographs, audio/video materials.
- will organize local activities – workshops/activities in cultural centers, libraries and ngos to share intercultural experience among people from small societies.
- will take part in the preparations of the Schuman Parade & Schumanville, events organized by the Schuman Foundation to celebrate Europe Day in the center of Warsaw.
- will take part in “internal on-arrival training” organized by the Schuman Foundation.
- will participate in monthly meetings.

currency – Polish złoty) per month – in cash or by a bank transfer (if they open a bank
account in Poland).

(strefa 1) is provided. The city has 2 areas of transport, however area 1 includes all main
districts of Warsaw. In Wojkowice the volunteers will receive a travel card for all Silesian
agglomeration. Small cities like Bedzin and Wojkowice are interconnected so when you go

the volunteers will share flats. The apartments will be rented by the Foundation for the entire
time of volunteers’ mobilities and are equipped with all necessary utilities. Volunteers are
obliged to keep the flat clean 🙂 In Warsaw volunteers will live in 3 apartments. Up to 6
volunteers share the apartment. Often volunteers share a bedroom with another volunteer.

30 minutes to get from the flat to the school by bus. In Wojkowice 2 volunteers will share a flat,
each will have own bedroom.

Foundation with a limit up to 90-110 złoty per month per person (depending on the flat and
heating season).

months, 1,5 hour twice a week
