Vereinigung Junger Freiwilliger

Beschreibung:
Background: Kunimi-En is a school/home for mentally challenged people founded in 1996 as "a big home for mutual help". The main aim of this school is to provide independent living space for mentally handicapped people, regarding them as individuals who live comfortably and liberally as in their own home. All staffs are trying to focus on not only to enrich the services they are providing there but also to introduce their welfare programs and activities to local people. Work: Each volunteer will help people (from 23 to 73 years old) both inside and outside of the school. Besides helping daily routine such as cleaning and their own duties, volunteers will be expected to take part in social activities mentioned above to share their opinions on Japanese welfare or their impression on what they have been experiencing both in Japan and their own countries. Volunteers and residents will be working together on some activities such as drawing, gardening etc. There also will be an opportunity to introduce your country and cook the dishes of your own country. Bring something symbolizing your country and the recipe!! Volunteers should be kind to handicapped people, be interested in social welfare, and willing to do what is needed. Basic Japanese skill would be very helpful to enjoy this project. Please bring a Japanese dictionary which will help better understanding. ※A motivation letter is needed for apply Accommodation: Volunteers will be accommodated in a Ryokan　（Japanese style hotel) near Kunimi-En. At Kunimi-en they will provide 2 meals a day (lunch and dinner) but volunteers need to buy breakfast by themselves, the cost of which Kunimi-en will pay. The facility has bedrooms, a washer and a shared bathroom. It also has an internet access and a telephone for international call.
