Voce - Volontari al Centro

VOCE- Volunteers in the center is the volunteer house of Milan.

It’s a place that holds in new dimensions the community life of the city of Milan and the area. It’s an open space born from the values founded by the volunteers and it inspires itself from the values of an operating and responsible city, paying attention to solidarity and civil duties. Reflection, participation and active citizenship all come together here as references point to give back to youth, the families, the organizations in the area and the volunteers a renewed sense of belonging.

VOCE is foremost a place where useful services and culture is created for the territory; contributing in building a new sense of community life thanks to the values created by the associations and the volunteers.

It’s a knot in the net of organizations, institutions and local services in the Milano area.

It’s a place where people can meet, share experiences, learn and work.

It’s a group of local non-profit associations but it’s also a home for anybody in Europe arriving in Milan to live the experience of Volunteer Services of Europe.
