Youth Support in Rome

Italian children have access to school but often lack the support to continue their education and follow their dreams. Volunteers help different NGOs promote extracurricular educational initiatives, design new activities, and support existing ones. They also teach new sports, cultures, languages, and more. The goal is to foster inclusion, personal development, and key life skills within these children and youth. What to expect: • Plan and lead extracurricular activities. • Assist children with their homework. • Teach new sports, cultures, languages, and other skills. Daily tasks: • Create and implement new activities. • Assist with homework and study sessions. • Teach arts, crafts, sports, and other activities. • Help children develop English language skills.

Volunteering with International Volunteer HQ alongside the incredible team at my placement in Kenya has been one of the most humbling and grounding experiences of my life. I arrived thinking I was coming to give time, energy, skills, support. What I didn’t expect was how much I would receive in return. Every day here has been a reminder of the power of dignity, resilience, and community. I have witnessed strength that doesn’t shout, hope that doesn’t give up, and kindness that shows up even when resources are limited. The people at the women's education placement lead with heart, purpose, and an unwavering commitment to uplifting others not just for today, but for generations to come. This experience has slowed me down in the best possible way. It has invited me to listen more deeply, to be present, and to remember that real impact starts with human connection. The smiles, the conversations, the shared moments they stay with you. They change you. I am deeply grateful to IVHQ for creating a bridge that allows volunteers like me to step into meaningful, respectful, community-led work. And I am endlessly thankful to my placement in Kenya for welcoming me with open arms and trusting me to be part of their story, even for a short time. This is not a trip I will “return from” unchanged. It is an experience I will carry forward into my work, my relationships, and how I show up in the world. Thank you for reminding me that service is not about saving, it’s about standing beside, learning together, and honoring the shared humanity that connects us all.
