ZAGREB VOLUNTEERING FESTIVAL
What is FESTIVOL?
Zagreb Volunteer Festival is the celebration and promotion of volunteering - value, what it brings to communities and how to get involved. Additionally, Festivol is an opportunity for visitors to find out what is hidden in the words of volunteering - what volunteers do, why they volunteered, how many active volunteers there are in Zagreb, what kind of influence they make in the local community, their gain in volunteering and how to get involved volunteer activity.
We will bring volunteering and volunteers into the center of attention - make them visible to society. Listen to volunteer stories, stories of organizations that offer volunteer activities and say thank you.
Festivol is a great opportunity not only for visitors interested in volunteering, but also for organizations that create volunteering opportunities to show what they offer and how people can join and participate in creating a better world.
