Marijampole Children’s Family Home is a non-profit NGO (non-governmental organization) which takes care of custody of orphans and homeless children as well as creates a system of orphan custody and education on the basis of a natural family model.
Volunteers’ role is more like ”big brother or sister”, because the place is home for children so not always they are keen on participating in organized activities, volunteer should be part of their daily routine, create relationship, be a role model, therefore learning the language is very important in order to communicate with children, “moms” and “aunts” (most of the workers can only speak Lithuanian). Besides calm everyday life, volunteers could help the children to improve their life skills in everyday activities, participate and help to organize the events and other activities of the Marijampoles vaiko teviskes namai, go to excursions and other trips with the children with bicycles or by walking, help children on their spare time involving them into meaningful activities, help them with their home works of volunteers tongue language and other, to implement their own ideas to our community.
