Everyone has a right to relaxation. Even children for whom it is less obvious. That's why Belgian Red Cross-Flanders organizes camps for:

  • children with disabilities from socially vulnerable families (WOW camp +)

  • 1 week (or longer) you can set yourself free
  • creative team player, full of ideas and enthusiasm, with a heart for children
  • healthy portion of patience and relatability

What does it entail?

During our WOW camps and WOW camps+, we create a carefree environment where they can just be kids. And where play and fun take center stage. Fancy joining your fellow animators and the other volunteers in giving them an unforgettable adventure?  

You develop the animation activities
You work on the camp theme, you put together the most fun beach and forest games with your fellow animators and you guide the group with full enthusiasm. The children love you and you do everything you can to make them happy.
