Welcome to this platform matching staff and pensioners of the European Commission and their families with volunteering opportunities!
This opportunity is offered to you thanks to the subscription, which we have taken out with Give a Day, a young Belgian social cooperative.
Here you will find a wide choice of volunteering projects and activities selected to reflect the values and objectives of our Institution. Project descriptions are available in English or French. For projects available only in Dutch, the description is in Dutch as well.
The activities offered can be taken as part of the special volunteering leave with colleagues - subject to line management approval, of course – and your proof of participation is generated in your site profile.
You can also set up a team building activity, or volunteer during your free time with family members (16+).
Access is also open to Blue Book trainees.
All the details are in the FAQ.*
We wish you a great volunteering experience, and don't forget to get back to us to give us your feedback!

« L'implication de la communauté est l'un des domaines clés de la responsabilité sociale et d'entreprise telle que définie par les normes internationales. La Commission a une longue tradition de soutien à un large éventail d'activités de volontariat individuelles et collectives. En tant qu'employeur, nous souhaitons renforcer les opportunités pour le personnel de s'engager dans un travail bénévole au profit des communautés locales. »

What is Give a Day?
Give a Day matches volunteers and organisations for ec staff volunteer for a change. We work together with ec staff volunteer for a change through a local volunteer matcher and the 360° volunteer manager. Let's go for a positive impact together!
In addition to the matching website, the Give a Day team is committed to realising the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We do this by getting charities, volunteers, companies, schools and municipalities to work together through concrete volunteer projects and neighborhood participation trajectories.
