Activities
Vrijwilligerspunt Gent organizes a number of activities every year to put volunteer work in the spotlight. The Week of the Volunteer and the International Day of the Volunteer are two moments during the year where Vrijwilligerspunt Gent takes the opportunity to shine a light on voluntary work in the city of Ghent.
The Week of the Volunteer
The week of the Volunteer, usually at the beginning of March, is the main event on the calendar of Vrijwilligerspunt Gent. During this special week we organize various actions and activities for volunteers, organizations and the many possible new volunteers.
In recent years they have been able to participate in:
- The voluntary work fair
- Special training opportunities
- One day voluntary work
The International Day of the Volunteer
On December 5th, the International Day of the Volunteer, Vrijwilligerspunt Gent takes the opportunity to thank volunteers. Every year volunteers in Ghent are especially appreciated through creative activities.
