Ezgi - Presentation of EVSDear United Games Participants!

Do you remember the presentation of the different Voluntary Services on Thurseday, the 20th of September?
One of the presentations was about the European Voluntary Service, made by us, Ezgi and Elisabeth.
We have promised you to send you some more information and useful links, so that you can find out how it works from the place where you live:

Here are once more the steps of how it usually works when you want to do an EVS (European Voluntary Service):

  • Find the nearest Sending-organisation working with the EVS
  • Get information for the process of application from them
  • Search for projects that you are interested in on the data base for EVS projects: : http://ec.europa.eu/youth/program/sos/index_en.html
  • Get in contact with possible hosting organisations in the country that you want to go to and send them you CV (Curriculum Vitae) and a motivation letter (why you want to go to this project etc.)
  • Apply for your EVS together with the sending organisation and the hosting organisation to your National Agency (consider deadlines!)
  • Wait and be patient :)
  • GO!!!
And here some useful links:

Web-page of European Commission:
Data base for EVS projects:
You can also download the Programme Guide in your own language (explains everything about the EVS Programme):
Blogs of EVS Volunteers (Get the spirit of EVS, read about the life of current volunteers...):
Network of Organisations offering EVS Placements:
http://www.youthnetworks.eu/

And have a look at the attachements too!

We wish you good luck for whatever you do, especially of course, if it is going abroad with EVS :)

Ezgi and Elisabeth
