We work mainly with young students (13-19 years old) from our region (Dolny Śląsk - Lower Silesia) but also we have contacts with olders. The main goal is to support social groups in volunteering in region where they live, also in rural areas. We also help them to develop their interests, talents and social skills.

We cooperate with schools (about 150 schools; about 3000 young volunteers) in our city and region and prepare for them workshops, conferences Open Space, events, festivals which are connected with volunteering.
