Volunteers in Apemsi |
   |
|
Our organisation values immensely the dedication of the volunteers who give up their family time, hobbies and free time and dedicate their time and spirit to epilepsy. We will do everything possible to motivate them and help with their personal development. The association has put in place all of the tools and resources needed to create a favourable interior and exterior environment which encourages, facilitates and promotes the work of the volunteers, encouraging communication from both sides about experiences as well as resolving doubts that might arise through practice. To enable the volunteers to provide quality support in activities they are offered initial training about epilepsy which will be complimented by other courses and activities. |
- A VOLUNTEER’S VOICE
-
I was never sure how I could help, I felt lost and could not find my place. Now there is a fight which I want to be part of, next to these children who are trapped in a serious illness. Now there is a fight where I wanna be next to these children who are caught in a serious illness.
However much I talk, or raise my voice, if you do not listen we cannot advance, we need lots of voices to make dreams come true.
If you think this fight is not for you, perhaps one day it might be you and you will feel impotent if nobody wants to help.
Become involved in our project, do not worry about failing, give a course to your life and start to participate. Whatever you offer and pass on, you will receive a lot: smiles, hugs, looks and silences which help to reflect.
Apemsi needs you, come and help. Hazte voluntario/a (become a volunteer)
- Live the experience of being a volunteer

"A volunteer is a person who by their own choice dedicates some of their time in solidarity and altruism". Thanks to the unselfish work of thousands of volunteers and contributors it has been possible to maintain and develop the projects and services of the Spanish and Granada Association of those affected by Severe Epilepsy.
