One Year Volunteering in Paris

<p>Volunteering is well-known and worthy in France. Based on statistics, one out of every four French citizens volunteers at some point in time.

I came to France at the end of June 2021 wanting to start learning French. Due to the summer vacations, most of the institutions which teach French were closed. So, I had to search for alternatives. By doing a short search, I found Serve the City Paris (STCP), an international NGO focused on helping asylum seekers, refugees, the homeless, and underprivileged foreigners in Paris. One of the STCP programs is the language exchange; anyone who is interested in learning or teaching French or English can join this program.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@safi.eb/one-year-volunteering-in-paris-1acda39742ec"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
