YOUTH ALMA

YOUTH ALMA Association is a NGO which mission is to promote the active citizenship among youngsters, especially from rural areas by creating opportunities that facilitate their personal and professional development.

We started our journey by implementing local initiatives as an informal group and being partners in Youth in Action and afterwards in ERASMUS+ projects. In collaboration with local univirsities and NGO`s we organized training courses and workshops for volunteers, students, highschool pupils and youth workers in different fields, such us: communication, fundraising, leadership, project management, non-formal methods.

Starting with 2015 we were involved in several fundraising campaigns for local projects. The beneficiaries of our projects are disadvantaged children and youngsters, from rural areas and from placement centers.

We collaborate with many local orphanages from Iasi such as Centrul de Servicii Sociale "Bucium", Centrul de servicii sociale "Ion Holban", Centrul de servicii sociale "C.A. Rosetti" Iasi. Our common aim being to offer a better life and increase the opportunities for the disadvantaged children from Iasi.

We have also implemented educational activities in local high schools, which aim to develop the youth and also to highlight their potential.
