How to become an EVS volunteer?

If you possess the requisites and you are well motivated contact an EVS sending organization in your neighborhood. The first step is to choose some projects from the database. Then your sending organization will follow all the phases: preparing CV and cover letter, sending applications to the organizations which run the chosen projects. When you have been selected one of the involved organizations applies to one of National Agencies for funding. If it is approved the sending organization can see about your travel tickets, insurance, on arrival training and so on. They will maintain also periodical contacts with you during your voluntary service abroad and will help you to conclude the project after your return.
