This is a high-impact volunteer project wherein participants with technical digital skills make a difference by supporting the causes of NGOs in Rome. This volunteer program is especially suitable for:
Age 18+
Singles
Couples
Groups
50+
Wheel Chairs
For many of the NGO's that will be helped by this volunteer program, this will be a way to communicate better and, by that, have more donations and create more awareness. And for you, this will help you expand your portfolio and will help you learn more about social and environmental issues.

Volunteers with a range of skills can assist on the Creative Technologies project:

~ Experienced website developers can help create or update websites incorporating relevant content and media to support charitable initiatives;
~ Graphic designers can help to create a range of marketing materials – such as flyers, print advertisements, website content, social media posts or logos and e-books;
~ Volunteers with experience in videography or film can create promotional videos or documentaries;
~ Photography lovers can help NGOs in documenting their activities, creating catalogues, and providing images for social media and marketing material.

If you have a preference in regards to the type of NGO you would like to work with, please note this in your application when you apply and we will do our best to match you to that focus area. These NGOs generally won’t have an abundance of resources available, so volunteers need to provide their own laptops, design software (Adobe Creative Suite or equivalent) and/or camera equipment in order to participate on this project. Volunteers will be required to have prior skills, so please ensure you include all relevant qualifications and/or experience in your application.

During your stay in Rome, you will be accommodated in a Camping. Located just outside the huge, historic center of Rome, your accommodation is a camping shifting towards eco-friendly practices, just 45 minutes away from the train station. Around, you can find everything you need: local coffee shops, supermarkets, ATMs, pharmacies and other utilities . 

The camping is 5 minutes walking from the bus stop. Fiumicino Airport is around 25km away, while Ciampino Airport is 31km away.

The camping is a green oasis, apart from the fast pace of Rome city center. Its wide spaces contribute to a chill, friendly atmosphere.
The camping mainly accommodate young people and international travelers that want to visit Rome in a more sustainable way.
WiFi is available in some common areas, but there are various green spots perfect to socialize or take some time for yourself. In addition to areas such as the restaurant, there is also a big swimming-pool - accessible from late May until September.
The welcoming and young staff is originally from Rome, so you can ask them the best tips and advices to enjoy the city and surroundings like a local! With us you can also rent bikes for free, explore the city and go biking through the archaeological parks.

- ALL SERVICES AND OPTIONS:
Buffet restaurant with fresh, local food (and veggie options!), free WiFi, swimming pool, 24-hour reception, laundry, green areas. You can also be very active, since there also are table tennis, billiards and a basketball courts. These are just a few of the facilities the hostel offers!
- SUSTAINABILITY:
The camping is shifting towards a sustainable model, solar panels are already in use and drinking water is available in the area close to the reception, to fight plastic use. The green areas are protected like a sanctuary, and separate waste collection is practised. Moreover, the camping is animal-friendly!
