Charity@home

Thanks to the Charity@HOME program I lived a different summer, near home but with my mind projected to far places, living again that international vibe I missed so much in the last year.

For summer 2021, the University Centre for International Solidarity of Università Cattolica (CeSI) promoted the volunteering program Charity@HOME. The program offer students and recent graduates of Università Cattolica the chance to live service and volunteering experiences which are qualifying and aimed at enhancing their academic path through the acquisition of skills in their field of study.

Due to the situation caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, CeSI offered 33 scholarships to live a volunteering experience in Italy, while maintaining the international vocation of the Centre.

During this experience I had the chance to discover new realities and meet new people: I listend to their stories, I discovered different traditions and cultures. It has been like travelling around the world, while staying in a little street in Rome.
