And finally, let´s take a look at what our volunteers say about their time here

I’ve been at Youthfully Yours for a relatively short time, but in just a few months, I’ve had the opportunity to learn an incredible amount of new information, experience amazing moments and meet the best work team! Volunteering has shown me how many opportunities young people have, but often, we don’t even know about them. That’s why I’m glad that I can now help other young people learn about these amazing possibilities.

Jana

My favourite thing about volunteering in YY is the flexibility and experience one gains there. Administration, logistics or working with people, you’ll learn everything. And yet it is not stressful because the entire team is there to support you.

Timo

At YYSK, one year after starting as a volunteer I began working part-time, and within two years I was coordinating an international offline meeting in Košice myself. YYSK is a place for growth!

Serafym

Volunteering with YYSK isn’t something that is tailored for a specific type of person — you kind of just find yourself within it. What I have found is that even though my skill set is pretty different from what you would usually expect in this kind of organization, it still gets used and developed. I have been able to bring what I enjoy, while also picking up on a plethora new things — a one of a kind experience.
