“I spent five weeks as a volunteer in a charity shop in Ireland. My work consisted of providing sales assistance to customers, tidying the shop, sorting the donations and cleaning them for display. I had a very welcoming team at the shop who helped me whenever I had questions and trusted me with many different tasks. We always had fun at work! I stayed in a host family that immediately made me feel at home, they included me in their activities and made sure I got the most out of my stay in Ireland. Thanks to the team in Ireland, I met other volunteers who quickly became my friends and explored the country with me. The orientation days were a great welcome to Ireland and helped me ease my fears and look forward to my stay. Overall I had a great time and would recommend the program!”

“I really had the best time of my life in Ireland. Being a volunteer in a charity Shop taught me so much about myself and helped me to grow as a person. I received so much love and thankfulness from my co-workers and the costumers, so that even on rather stressful days, I could leave work with a big smile on my face. Plus, Ireland absolutely became the home of my heart - it only took me a few seconds to feel at home when I took my first steps on Irish soil and I could not have asked for a better country or a better organization. I can say from the bottom of my heart that it was the right decision to become a volunteer in Ireland. I arrived in the country without any work experience and without having visited Ireland before and I left with so many beautiful memories and lots of great experiences!”
