Hungarian Volunteer Sending Foundation

The aim of the Hungarian Volunteer Sending Foundation is to provide the personnel needed to carry out developmental and aid projects undertaken by Hungarian or international organizations. To successfully complete their projects, which are not devoid of risks, the executive organizations need well-trained people who can make decisions in complicated circumstances, have excellent problem-solving and communicational skills, and who through their work can be considered worthy representatives of our country. The purpose of the Hungarian Volunteer Sending Foundation is to foster a relationship with organizations specialized in carrying out developmental and aid projects and to find the right volunteer or professional for the job, based on the needs and requests forwarded to us. After gaining knowledge of the concrete concerns and circumstances of the project, we also prepare the volunteers or professionals for the specific on-site tasks they will be carrying out. The foundation also provides the infrastructure needed to carry out the tasks: transportation, insurance, food and lodging, health coverage and communications. It also offers support and oversees the volunteer’s or professional’s work and, upon their return home, helps them readapt to their normal environment.
