Reasons and grants

… because young people can spend time abroad without their parents, but with their friends and qualified staff

… because teenagers interact in intercultural groups made up of people from many different countries, which can foster understanding and a sense of community

… because communication takes place in English, allowing them to use and practice the language in everyday interactions

… because teenagers engage in meaningful, exciting activities and contribute to society through their assistance in workcamp projects

… because the program strengthens teenagers’ social skills within a team, fosters independence, and allows them to experience the joy of community

… because they simply spend a lot of time outdoors, where they can be creative and physically active
