There are rules that all Charities have to follow:

A Charity’s aims have to fall into categories that the law says are charitable. These are things like preventing or relieving poverty, or advancing the arts, culture, heritage or science.

It has to be established exclusively for what is known as public benefit: that means its only purpose must be charitable.

Charities can’t make profits. All the money they raise has to go towards achieving their aims. A charity can’t have owners or shareholders who benefit from it.

Charities have to state what their charitable objectives are in order to be registered with the Charity Commission, and then explain how they are meeting them in their annual reports, which are publicly available. ..

Public benefit

To be a charity, an organisation has to:

Be of benefit
It has to do positive things, and if there are negative side-effects or consequences, these must be outweighed by its positive work.

Benefit the public
This doesn't have to mean all of the public. It could mean everyone in a geographic area, or everyone with a specific characteristic, such as people with cancer, or who work in teaching.

It's up to the Charity Commission to decide whether an organisation passes the public benefit test. It does this on the basis of its guidance, and by looking at case law.

💡 Good to Know Before You Volunteer Abroad in Italy

Before starting your international volunteer program in Italy, there are a few things you should think about first. Italy is generally a safe place to travel with a low crime rate, few endemic diseases, and a great healthcare system. The following list might help you with your travel planning and your time on site:

Communication

It's good to know a few Italian words in remote places where many people don't speak it. This will also come in handy if you work with Italian people.

Bella Figura is an important concept in Italy meaning that presenting yourself well in all circumstances is important. Italians take pride in beauty.

People express themselves in a passionate manner. This may initially take you by surprise. Physical contact is common in Italy so keep this in mind.

The family is very important to Italians.

Money and Payment

Credit cards will be accepted in most big stores but local taverns will most likely only accept cash. Be sure you have enough cash on hand.

ATM's are widely available on the mainland and larger islands. Remote places may lack banks and ATMs so be sure to check whether your destination has one and whether you need to bring more cash.

It's not custom to give tips in Italy and it isn't expected.

🦺 Is it Safe to Volunteer in Italy?

Before embarking on this once-in-a-lifetime international volunteer experience in Italy, there are a few things you may want to take into account. Travel always holds some adventure but your safety is imperative to enjoy it to the fullest:

Although the crime rate has been increasing over the last years, Italy is still a very safe country. Except for some neighborhoods in Rome, like the park Villa Borghese, where it would be preferable not to walk alone at nights, the whole country is safe.

Italians are known for their incautious driving. Take this into account if you decide to rent a car.

In case of emergencies, dial 112. You can also dial 113 for the police, 115 for the fire department, or 118 for first aid.

Avoid hitchhiking and accepting rides from strangers.

Carry a basic first-aid kit in case of emergencies.

Avoid carrying large amounts of cash or expensive jewelry.

Don't leave your luggage or other personal belongings unattended.

When you go hiking, always inform someone about your whereabouts before leaving.

Make sure you have travel insurance for the time you are away. This is easy to come by and will ensure you are covered when anything happens to you while you travel.

Take copies of your passport and credit cards and store them separately just in case.

Health Advice

Italy is a developed country with excellent facilities, so health is less of a concern here for volunteers. Nevertheless, to make your stay at the Italian volunteer program as enjoyable as possible take into account the following:

You can go to a Farmacia(pharmacy) for minor health issues as they will be well equipped to help you. You may even get certain prescription meds over the counter.

If you require a hospital you can go to the Ospedale where they will help you.

There are doctors spread across most cities with opening times mentioned at the door. You can show up and wait for your turn.

Make sure you bring suitable rain gear and a windproof jacket if you are volunteering in autumn or early spring.

If you have any health problems or take medication, be sure to bring the medication along with the prescription with you. The prescription can be important when passing through customs.

Packing Essentials

After reading all of the above, we're sure you're ready to pack your bags to volunteer abroad at a program in Italy. Before you stuff your backpack with swimwear, shorts, and sunglasses, we'd like to help you by giving you some useful tips you may not have thought of before you travel:

Travel Insurance

Money, cards, credit cards

Passport

Power adapter suitable for Italy (220V) (perhaps more than 1 if you're heavy on electronics)

Waterproof phone case to protect against dust, scratches, and water

Water shoes for spending time at or around the beach

Personal medication, first-aid kit

Sun hat

Raincoat

Scarf

Quick-dry towels

Suitable footwear for hiking etc

🕵🏽‍♀️ Who Can Volunteer in Italy?

As you will have noticed by now, there are many different projects that expect different work skills and abilities from their international volunteers. Some programs will also require volunteers to stay for a certain amount of time. You can find out more about the specific requirements for each project on their program page. Here are some general requirements that apply to most projects while you volunteer abroad in Italy:

You need to be at least 18 years old for most of the volunteer projects. When in doubt, we advise you to get in touch with the local project manager. Some projects accept volunteers under the age of 16.

You need to have basic English skills to do volunteer work in Italy.

Depending on the project you're interested in, you might need to provide a criminal background check and a health declaration before volunteering.

❓ How to Volunteer in Italy

Take a look at the following 3 steps that will prepare you for your volunteer work in Italy and an unforgettable adventure abroad:

Check whether there's a match between you and the Italian volunteer opportunity by looking at their requirements.

Take a look at the location of the project and decide whether it's a place you're excited about traveling to.

Get in touch with the organization and see whether your expectations and schedules match up. If you want to volunteer in Italy for a week or for a longer period of time, check the project descriptions for more details.

Insurance (Health & Travel)

We recommend all our volunteers to get both health and travel insurance. In fact, this is even a requirement for most programs abroad. Get in touch with your program contact person in Italy to find out if an insurance plan is already in place for volunteers.

🛂 Do I Need a Visa to Volunteer in Italy?

There are some general requirements volunteers should comply upon their arrival in Italy:

Check the current validity of your passport. The passport should remain valid for at least 3 months after your expected return date. However, we strongly recommend traveling with 6 months validity on your passport at all times. If you're from the EU, the same applies to your ID.

Make sure your passport has at least two blank Visa pages. Italy requires you to have adequate unused pages in your passport, allowing for any necessary stamps upon arrival and departure.

Please check if a transit visa is required for any connections.

Make sure to have a valid return ticket for your travel home.

Please consider that the following information is based on a best practices approach, which has been made according to the best of our knowledge and in cooperation with several volunteer organizations. That's why you should make sure to discuss your visa requirements with your program contact person at Volunteer World. If in doubt, we also recommend you to contact the Italian embassy in your country.

Best practice for Short-Term volunteers

People from visa waiver countries that want to volunteer abroad in Italy can visit the country for periods up until 3 months without applying for a visa beforehand. You will need to prove you are a visitor by having a return ticket and also proving that you have sufficient money for your stay.

Citizens from countries that are not on the visa waiver list can apply for a visitor visa and will need to arrange this before leaving for Italy. You can easily check if you come from a visa waiver country.

Best practice for Long-Term volunteers

If you have plans to stay longer than 3 months and you are from a non-Schengen country, it is best to look into the visa options together with your volunteer organization. This website about Italian visa requirements may prove to be helpful.

We hope we've inspired you to volunteer in Bella Italia. It's no surprise it's one of the tourist hotspots in the world. Volunteer in Italy and take the opportunity to discover its unparalleled cultural landscape. Immerse yourself in the Italian way of life and support its local community and environment where needed. We would love to help you find the right volunteer opportunities in Italy!

To begin with, I would say that education is paramount and every human being has the right to go to school

Secondly, I think Nicolò Govoni is extremely inspiring, mostly because he's young: it's not very common to see young people working so hard to help other people.

It is also reliable because they update really often they website, showing how still I rise is reaching goals more and more

On top of that I would say that children MUST be helped and defended, no matter what: Still I Rise does that, they deal with countries where young girls and boys are in danger.

It’s interesting to know about Nicolò Govoni’s life when he was a student.

He didn’t use to like school because he thought  it was boring and his teachers believed that he was an empty-minded, incapable person. Fortunately, there was a teacher, Nicoletta that believed he was capable and special, even if nobody else supported him. She knew that he was unique because he payed more attention at the smallest detail and the way he wrote was extremely sentimental and poetic.

It’s easy to understand that she played an important role in Nicolò’s life and we have to be grateful because it’s thanks to people like her if he became the extremely inspiring person he is today.

STILL I RISE is an organization that deals with unprivileged children who can't go to school and works tremendously hard to let them have a brighter future.

Nicolò Govoni's organization builds up schools in many Countries like Greece (Mazi Educational Center), Kenya ( Still I Rise International School), Syria (Ma’An Educational Center) and Turkey (Beraber International Educational Center)

They are also struggling to build up an Emergency school in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Not only that, in its educational centers this association offers to girls and boys protection too: in those areas food is insufficient and sanitary and hygienic conditions are extremely inadequate!

Children absolutely can't live in a place which is so dangerous!

Donate now please!

NICOLÒ GOVONI Nicolò Govoni is a 28 years old writer and activist. He was born in Cremona, Lombardy and he is the founder of the organisation Still I Rise. When he was 20 years old he started working as a volunteer in a orphanage of a village in India.

# data[].attributes.body
LET’S TALK ABOUT HIS STORY….

Nicolò Govoni is a writer and an activist of 28 years old. He was born in Cremona, in Lombardy, and he is now the president of the organization STILL I RISE, which is born to offer education, protection and dignity to all the children IN NEED.

When he was 20 years old, Nicolò he started being to work as  a volunteer in an orphanage of a tiny village in India. He has stayed in India for 4 years and he has taken got his graduation there, in the at Symbiosis International University.

In 2017 he published an e- book named: “ White like God” to sponsor the education of the children in the orphanage.

After that, Nicolò Govoni left India and moved to Samos, in Greece, where he started working in a refugee camp. Here, in 2018, he founded the humanitarian organization STILL I RISE and opened MAZI MARÌ, which is the first emergency school for children and teenagers who are refugees of the island.

Here in Greece, Nicol Govoni  he wrote a second book named: “If it was your son”, which is basically a complaint against the abuses of the Greek authorities to against the refugees.

Finally during the 2020/2021 Nicolò Govoni has worked hard to open emergency and rehabilitation schools in Turkey, Syria, Kenya and in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Today, Nicolò runs the organization Still I Rise in 8 countries and provides gives  work UP to 100 people in the world.

Why did I choose Nicolò Govoni’s organization to talk about charities?

[1] Firstly, because HE IS EXTREMELY YOUNG and thanks to this work thousands of poor children have the possibility to attend a school and to be educated.

[2] Secondly, because he is teaching us how to be open-minded people and how to help others as we can.

[3] Finally - and I would say the most important aspect - he is risking his own life to make the life of many children better.

Hello everyone! Today I’m here to talk about the Mercury Phoenix Trust.

I’ve decided to focus my attention on this foundation and I think that people should know more about it, for three reasons:

REASON NUMBER ONE:

First of all/To begin with, The main objective of this foundation is to support and finance  educational and awareness projects about AIDS in developing countries.In fact,   the members/volunteers think that the knowledge of this disease is paramount for preventing and reducing the  number of people affected by this disease and deaths  caused by AIDS all over the World.

REASON NUMBER TWO:

Secondly, the MPT donates to many NGOs and well-known charities, but also to a huge number of small grassroots organizations, which are usually overlooked by bigger foundations. In total, during the last 21 years, the MTP has founded more than 1,500 projects in almost 60 countries (like India, Uganda, Malawi, Congo, and many more…), by raising more than 17 million dollars for the global battle against AIDS.  In my view,  focusing on smaller charities that work in third World countries is fundamental because those are the countries that need more help and where people are less informed about this disease : because of this, people are more exposed to AIDS/HIV (or similar diseases), and the danger for them to get those diseases is really high.

REASON NUMBER THREE:

On top of that, I am convinced that nowadays , AIDS  is underestimated among young people, even though this   disease is spreading again  all over the world.

Many people think that today, AIDS  is a problem that impact the poorest areas of the World only, but this is completely wrong!  In fact, in November 2021, the EU and EES countries reported 104.765 new diagnoses.

Therefore, spreading awareness about this topic should be paramount everywhere!

MORE ABOUT MPT

The Mercury Phoenix Trust is a charity organization, with the aim of fighting HIV/AIDS worldwide.

The foundation has been active since The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert for AIDS Awareness, in 1992. The concert was organized in memory of Freddie Mercury, Queen singer who died in London in 1991 due to AIDS, by the remaining members of the groups and their manager, Jim Beach.

At the moment, the trustees of the MPT are Brian May, Roger Taylor, Jim Beach and Mary Austin.

The MPT predominantly funds small grassroots charities that often aren't reached by larger NGOs and governments .

The charity is a UK registered AIDS charity and for this reason, is strictly regulated by the British Charities Commission. That’s why the foundation is only able to donate money that they raise, to HIV/AIDS related projects and funds only registered charities.

SOME FACTS ABOUT AIDS/HIV
HIV is still a major global public health issue. In 2020 37.7 million of people were living with HIV globally (1.7 of them were children) and 16% of them are living without knowing that they have the virus. The countries with the highest number of HIV cases are east and Southern Africa, Western and Central Africa, Asia and Pacific: these countries are not developed as North America or Europe and the local population is not schooled and educated enough so they are not aware of the risk of contracting this type of virus.

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a damaging virus for the immune system’s cells that weakens your ability to fight everyday infections and disease.

AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) is a group of potentially life-threatening infections and illnesses that happen when your immune system has been severely damaged by the HIV virus. While AIDS can't be transmitted from one person to another, the HIV virus can.

There is still not a cure which can defeat this virus at all but, thanks to ART (Antiretroviral Therapy), people with the virus are more able to live a longer and healthier life.

I chose a charity called AISM first of all because I worked as a volunteer for this Non Profit Organization and sold apples for this charity.

I remember being with a group of friends of mine outside the church of my village. I was little so I don’t  remember this moment well. Despite this, I remember that we sold bags with apples inside and gave them to the people who made an offer.

I think it was extremely amusing because I was with my friends and I was pleased to be a volunteer even though I was little and maybe I didn’t understand the importance of this action.

Secondly, I would like to dig deep into this Non Profit Organization because they are extremely efficient and active: they invest money in scientific research on multiple sclerosis and they offer social health services to people who deal with MS, patients and their families.

On top of that, AISM is the only organization in Italy which deals with all the aspects of MS in a structured way and respects the rights of people that are affected with this terrible disease.

WHAT IS THE ITALIAN MS SOCIETY (AISM)?

AISM is a non-profit organization which was founded in 1968 by Bianca Maria Merini (affected by MS) and her husband Giorgio Valente and a small group of people with MS, doctors, relatives and social workers.

They wanted to found AISM to find out something more about multiple sclerosis that was pretty unknown at that time.

The Italian MS society promotes and supports innovative research with the aim of improving therapies, and provide support to the life of people with MS and find a cure for the disease.

In addition, AISM has a Foundation called FISM. This Foundation plays a paramount role nationally and internationally. Indeed, it promotes scientific research of excellence to have an impact on people with MS.

AISM fights for the Right of people with multiple sclerosis. Indeed they want them to have access to reliable and precise information.

They want the Right to accurate information and a Right to health and full quality life.

WHAT IS MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS?

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disabling chronic unpredictable disease of the central nervous system.

In people who have MS the immune system attacks the myelin (a protective sheath that covers nerves), the cells which produce myelin and nerve fibers. This attack causes communication problems between the brain and the body.

In the world there are 2.8 million people struggling with MS and most of them are young.

Unfortunately there’s no cure for people who struggle with this disease yet, but there are therapies that slow down the progress of the devastating symptoms.

HOW CAN WE DONATE TO HELP THE RESEARCH?

There are many different ways to donate to AISM.

LA GARDENSIA DI AISM

An option is buying a gardenia for a minimum price of €15 in May ( in 2021 was from 28th to the 30th).

LA MELA DI AISM

From the 1st to the 8th of October, it is possible to buy 1,8 kg of apples for a minimum price of €9 in more than 5 thousand Italian squares.

LE ERBE AROMATICHE DI AISM

In March, on the occasion of Women's Day, you can donate €10 to receive some aromatic herbs to sustain women that struggle with MS.

IL PANDOTTONE DI AISM

On the last days of November, you can buy a Panettone or a Pandoro to help provide services for people with MS and their families.

You can also donate by giving part of taxes to the FISM 5xmille or donate from their website. There are a lot of more ways to donate!

If you want to contribute, try to keep an eye on their website or on their social media.

I chose the organization “Save the children” for these reasons:

First of all because It guarantees the necessary care

to children to fight malnutrition.
The chronic malnutrition rate jumped from 30% in 2019 to 48% in 2021.
With the "Emergency Hunger Campaign" they launch an urgent appeal to save hundreds of thousands of children at risk of malnutrition.
The "Infant Food Safety Project" guarantees the supply of an integrated food safety package, food and nutritional subsistence interventions, with particular attention to pregnant women and newborns.

Secondly because it guarantees the right to education

to all the children, without discrimination.
In fact, Save the children has launched the "Protect Children" campaign thanks to which, every day, in Italy and in the rest of the world, all children must be educated. Because protecting children now, means protecting a generation that is our future.

Finally because it defends the children

from all forms of exploitation and abuse.
They work to protect children and adolescents from all forms of exploitation by offering educational and professional opportunities, psychophysical support, protection and safety.
There are campaigns to stop the export of weapons to Yemen or for the release of children in prison.

I chose this charity because I think that the protection of children is fundamental in a civil society, children represent the future so we must support this organization to save humanity.

Wars, calamities and even Covid-19 negatively affected the condition of millions of children who therefore suffer from malnutrition and hunger.

Without adequate nutritious food, children cannot grow normally, it's unacceptable that someone could die of hunger and thirst!

The right to education is very important for full human development and growth, to fight poverty and marginalization.

So many teenagers leave their studies so they destroy their dreams forever.

If we think that millions of children around the world are still victims of sexual abuse, child labor, child soldiers and mistreatment today we must stop and reflect!

We would like to introduce you to the Charity “Heads together” and tell you the reasons why you should donate to this Charity.

In the first place, this Charity works with young people who are struggling with their mental health. Mental health is very important, especially for teenagers, because they are our world's future.

Secondly, Volunteers at “Heads Together” don't care about race and religion and they try to help everybody in their country regardless of their social-cultural background.

On top of that, given that people who have mental diseases feel embarrassed asking for help, this Charity encourages them to talk about their problems without worries and ask for help and support.

In 2016, The Royal Foundation launched Heads Together – a campaign spearheaded by The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex. Bringing together eight charity partners, the initiative built on the decades of work they have done to tackle stigma and change the conversation on mental health for everyone.

As the Charity of the Year for the 2017 Virgin Money London Marathon, Team Heads Together took to the streets for the first ever Mental Health Marathon. Hundreds of runners ran for the campaign, with thousands more wearing their Heads Together headbands – all to raise the profile of this important issue and inspire people to talk about their own mental health for the first time

Heads Together works in partnership with eight mental health charities, they would request the selection of one of their partner charities.

The money you donate for Heads Together will be invested in a range of new and innovative projects.

All of the funding is being used to ensure people can access the right help, in the right place at the right time and the projects will be an exciting new phase of Heads Together.

If you want to donate to “Heads Together”, you can go to the link we put in our presentation which leads you to their website and you can choose how much money you want to donate to them.

Hello everyone! Today I want to talk about Greenpeace and why I chose this charity.

First of all Greenpeace is a worldwide organization that works to protect all the environment from the main issues like fighting global warming, saving the Arctic and living toxic-free.

They raise money to restore forests destroyed by fire or human actions, for example the Amazon rainforest or the woods in Russia and Canada.

Secondly Greenpeace sets very realistic goals, they care about issues in the ecosystem which maybe only few people notice, for example reducing the petrol in the Argentinian sea or protecting west African fishing communities. Have you ever heard about these issues in the news?

On top of that, Greenpeace works all over the world and in their website they have a section for each country, with a lot of news about issues in that specific area.

In 1971 a boat sailed from Vancouver with the aim of  preventing the explosion of a nuclear bomb in Amchitka. On board there were also journalists, to document the event. At first the protest group was called “Don’t create the wave” but then, the boat was given the name of “Greenpeace”

They don’t accept funds from governments and corporations, instead they rely on your goodwill and generosity. This makes them extremely independent and able to act against any corporation without fear of their funding being cut off.

Their website gives instructions on how to donate and not only that, they give you reasons why you should donate.

So what are you waiting for? Go to greenpeace.org and make your donation !

They help the AIRMEN and their families providing emergency financial assistance and on-base community program.

On top of that, the last reason WHY I CHOSE THIS ASSOCIATION is becauese I am touched by their effort and work, helping each others IN NEED...

Hello everyone, today I'm going to talk about a famous, important  and extremely active charity called “Emergency”.

I chose this  Nonprofit  Organisation first of all because I think that this association is doing amazing work in poor countries such as Afghanistan, which  are undergoing the terrible experience of  civil war.

Secondly, I decided to choose this Nonprofit Organisation because  the many volunteers who work for it are doctors and they  never care about who  the people are, but they care about  health and well being. For example, they help soldiers who   get injured during war actions… I think that in this way you can make  aggressive people change  their mind towards warfare.

On top of that, I chose to do some research work on “Emergency” because  Gino STrada and all the volunteer doctors  don’t earn any money, but they  devote all  their time to the victims of wars and this, in my opinion, is more important than the money.

The founders of Emergency are Gino Strada and his wife Teresa Sarti.

Let me tell you something about them.

Gino Strada was born on 21 April 1948 in Sesto San Giovanni, a town near Milan. Gino Strada, before opening this charity, had worked as a doctor at a hospital in RHO, near Milan. He had also worked as a surgeon with the Red Cross. On 15th May 1994 he decided to create this association called Emergency. Gino Strada also wrote two books:

Green Parrots

Buskashi

Teresa Sarti, Gino Strada’s wife, worked as a teacher in middle and high schools,  however she died in 2009 of cancer, unfortunately.

‘Emergency’ is a non-profit organization that helps people undergoing the experience of war, such as children, pregnant women and elderly people, but also injured soldiers.

‘Emergency’ has only one goal that isto offer free and high-quality medical and surgical care to the victims of war.

This association doesn't work only in Afghanistan, but also in Italy. It has around 160 groups linked to Emergency with four thousand volunteers. These volunteers are invited by teachers and parents and often go to schools to give talks about problems in poor and war countries.

> I chose this charity first of all because “Save The Children” is one of the first movements that has helped over a billion children all over the world so far. In fact at the time this association was founded by Eglantyne Jebb in 1919, people didn’t believe children had the necessity to have an education, grow up healthy and protected. So far they helped over a billion children all over the world.

Secondly because this is a totally nonprofit organization where all the money they receive goes to help more children. Save the Children has a proven track record of using donations efficiently and effectively. It's what makes them a top-rated charity and one of the best organizations to donate to.

Finally, I chose this Non Profit Organisation  because I have always had the same opinion as theirs and wanted to participate in giving a better future to children when I become an adult.
