The Volunteering Centre at Charles University was established to support Charles University students in volunteer activities and to connect them with partner non-profit organizations. We believe that student volunteer activities benefit society and help students develop both personal and professional skills. The Volunteer Centre provides administrative and organizational support, offers consultations, and facilitates knowledge sharing.

The Centre’s mission is primarily to:

• facilitate volunteer experiences for Charles University students,

• develop students' competencies essential for their personal and professional life through volunteering activities,

• provide administrative and organizational support for student volunteers,

• strengthen students' civic engagement and fulfil the university’s third role in society.

The Volunteering Centre also collaborates with a wide variety of partner organizations, each offering unique opportunities for involvement in projects and activities. One of the largest partners is the non-profit organization People in Need, which offers volunteer activities such as tutoring children, educational mentoring for high school students, and volunteering in media departments. Other partner organizations include Hnutí Brontosaurus, the Organization for Aid to Refugees, Caritas Czech Republic, and Memory of Nations. The full list can be found in the Volunteer Opportunities section, where you can also register in the database of volunteers.
