  Beschreibung

  Hi, thank you for visiting our page.
  
  We are a small Dutch charity operating in Gran Canaria, where European young adults can participate in regeneration and foster a nature-oriented connection between people and nature.
  
  Our mission is to support highly sensitive young adults by offering regenerative opportunities in a nature-rich and development-oriented environment. Starting in 2026, we will host groups of eight participants at a time, but for now, we are focusing on preparing our upcoming eco-projects.
  
  We are currently working hard on the organization and preparations for World Cleanup Day, coming up on September 20th: we are planning weekly beach and mountain cleanups, developing workshops on upcycling and waste separation, and coordinating logistics with local partners. At the same time, we are building upcycled projects and tackling small renovation and painting projects on our property.
  
  To increase our impact, we are also looking for a social media specialist for content creation, photography, and video editing.
  
  We live and work in the mountains of Gran Canaria, in the UNESCO-protected Valley of a Thousand Palms. Beautiful surroundings, accessible by bus. It's a remote environment, and you must be able to be independent. We offer one vegetarian meal per day (or a fee) and have a pantry with plant-based breakfast and snack options. We eat entirely vegetarian and don't cook or buy meat, poultry, or fish.
  
  We are looking for independent, creative volunteers with a passion for sustainability, social media, and the desire to join us in making the world a cleaner and more caring place. We also want to improve our Spanish, so we strongly prefer workawayers who speak Spanish or want to practice. If you are energized by practical eco-projects, developing eco-ideas, and contributing to sustainable initiatives, an upcycling or art project, we warmly invite you to come and help us!
  
  Volunteers live in luxurious accommodations, equipped with a shower, bath, washing machine, ample cooking space, internet, comfortable beds, and ample personal space. We also have space for those who would like to experience camping or stay in our wooden garden house. For nature lovers who appreciate silence and creativity.

  Building towards a transformative shift and an innovative methodology for European young adults for mental recovery and increased resilience. Educational Work Experience at the foundation
  
  We aim to make an impact not only on the young adults we guide but also on the participants who invest their time and energy in our organization. Here's how participants can learn, grow, and enrich their lives by engaging in our mission:
  
  Participants have the opportunity to delve deep into circularity and natural awareness practices. Whether it's organizing environmentally conscious events like the Rise Like A Phoenix campaign, participating in ecological projects, or promoting sustainable living, you are contributing to an environment that fosters environmental consciousness and mental well-being.
  
  By being involved in administrative tasks and organizational processes, participants gain valuable practical experience in the daily operations of a non-profit organization. They learn more about self-awareness, sustainable planning, coordination, and international communication in a responsible and professional manner.
  
  Our project connects participants with new age developments and with diverse communities and cultures, providing a unique opportunity to develop intercultural communication skills, increase understanding, and cultivate empathy.
  
  Participants are encouraged to explore their creative self-expression, whether in art, music, theater, or other forms of creativity. This contributes to personal growth and talent development.
  
  Participants are encouraged to get to know themselves better through self-reflection. This process of awareness contributes to personal development, growth in self-awareness and self-confidence, and taking responsibility for their own growth.
  
  From organizational to sustainability skills, participants acquire new skills that will serve them throughout their lives. Interaction with diverse communities not only increases cultural understanding but also appreciation for diversity.
  
  Contributing to a new era, positive transformation, and promoting sustainability brings a deep sense of satisfaction and meaningful work.

  Arbeit

  We welcome passionate volunteers to join us in making the world a better and healthier place. Whether you're a social media expert, a handy worker assisting with construction using found materials, a sustainability researcher, or someone who enjoys working in nature and gardens, everyone committed to transformative and positive change is invited to contribute. We aim to raise awareness and offer educational programs to inspire personal growth and consciousness.
  
  While our foundation is continuously evolving, our organization is determined, innovative, and promising. As pioneers forging a new path, we are constantly evolving and growing. This phase presents opportunities for growth on social media and websites, with a need for fundraisers and connectors among other sustainable organizations in the Netherlands, youth welfare, and other pioneers. Fluency in Spanish is required for communication on the island. There are also opportunities for construction and working with natural and waste materials to prepare for the Rise like a Phoenix project, contributing to a cleaner world, promoting biodiversity, and keeping land and sea plastic-free. If you're a social media expert, website builder, Spanish-Dutch bilingual communicator, nature enthusiast, or a transformer of this new era, consider joining us temporarily as we shape a healthy and hopeful future for young people.

  Unterkunft

  The accommodation at the foundation is designed to cater to various preferences and needs, offering a range of options for participants. Here's a description of the available accommodations:
  
  The wooden chalet, nestled in the garden, offers a private and comfortable space for individuals seeking solitude and focused personal time. It is equipped with essential amenities to ensure a cozy and functional living environment. This option is suitable for those who value privacy and prefer an independent living arrangement.
  
  Shared Living House for 4. For those who appreciate a communal living experience, the shared house for four people offers a dynamic and social environment. Participants in this accommodation share common spaces, fostering a sense of community and interaction. The shared living house is well-equipped to accommodate the needs of multiple residents, promoting a collaborative and supportive atmosphere.
  
  Shared Living House for 3. Similar to the shared house for four, the shared living house for three individuals provides a communal living experience but on a slightly smaller scale. This option is ideal for those who prefer a more intimate group setting while still enjoying the benefits of shared spaces and community living.
  
  We understand that accommodation preferences vary, and we strive to cater to the diverse needs of our participants. With our housing options we aim to provide a supportive and enriching environment for personal and collective growth.
  
  We offer one vegetarian meal per day (or a fee). All accommodations are equipped with a fully furnished kitchen, bathroom, toilet, and are tastefully furnished.
