Our participation in the ESC BOX program was an experience that will remain etched in our memory. The program’s theme, which focused on volunteering, gave us the opportunity to broaden our horizons and meet people with a shared passion for giving and cooperation. Through the activities and workshops, we discovered new aspects of volunteering and realized the value it can offer to society and to the volunteers themselves.

Last October I was given the opportunity to travel with USB and participate in the Rural Development program in Armenia. There we had to get in touch with the rural and local Armenian community and consider how the rural areas of both the region and our country can be upgraded in terms of business. We visited villages, worked with teenagers and children who had a vision for their place and overall we tried to create a plan that could be implemented in the region and bring about its development. It was a unique experience with amazing people in a country that has a lot to offer.
