Volunteer mission in Sturgel: join us this summer!

The Association for Shared Learning ELA is launching an exciting volunteer mission in the village of Sturgel this summer!
If you are passionate about education, community development, and hands-on initiatives, this is your chance to make a real impact.

What is the mission about?
We are working to restore and repurpose an abandoned school in Sturgel into a dynamic learning and community center. Our goal is to create an inclusive space where children and young people can learn, grow, and connect. Volunteers will participate in renovation activities, educational workshops, and community-building initiatives.

Who can participate?
We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds who are eager to contribute their time and skills. Whether you have experience in education, construction, arts, or simply a willingness to help, your participation will be valuable. This mission is also an excellent opportunity for international volunteers who want to experience Bulgarian culture and support a meaningful cause.

What will you do?
✔ Take part in light construction work, such as painting, minor repairs, and organizing spaces within the school.
✔ Organize educational and creative workshops for children and young people.
✔ Support local community events and cultural exchange activities.
✔ Engage in teamwork and shared learning experiences.

Why join?
By volunteering, you will:
⭐ Be part of a movement that promotes inclusive education and community sustainability.
⭐ Gain hands-on experience in community work and project development.
⭐ Meet like-minded people and become part of a meaningful, collaborative environment.
⭐ Discover the beauty of rural Bulgaria and experience local traditions.
⭐ Contribute to a long-term initiative that supports rural development and inclusive learning.

Support the mission!

This initiative is open not only to volunteers but also to donors and supporters. If you would like to help but cannot join in person, you can support us through the crowdfunding campaign on Podkrepi.bg. Every contribution will go towards materials, accommodation, and essential resources for volunteers and community projects.
