Bunkr is a regional non-profit organization that provides social services to children and youth in the age of 12 through 20. Organization works in 3 towns: Trinec, Jablunkov and Bohumin.

Bunkr works with young people that bored and they haven’t got any idea what to do in their free time.. Together with our clients, we organize creative and inspiring activities. We try to positively influence our clients’ values, attitudes and motivations.

We work “under the roof” (in clubs) and outside (“in the streets”) with our clients.
Bunkr offers social services and alternative free time activities and opportunities for children and youth to speak about their problems and to receive help and advice. It organizes also cultural and social prevention programs and activities.

Streetwork provides social services for young people and children outside in the streets, parks and playgrounds. etc.
Bunkr runs a music studio which is fully equipped with needed music equipment. Studio is available for young beginner musicians.

This project focuses on public playgrounds in Trinec and Bohumin.
Young people and volunteers work on playgrounds where they take care of a safe environment, play various games with other young people, and prevent vandalism on playgrounds at the time of their stewardship.

Volunteers participate in all of the above mentioned projects – they help in clubs, assist the streetworkers, help with music studio operation and the students’ team and take part in the playgrounds’ project.
Volunteers learn Czech language. They also get to know our culture, customs, traditions and people. Our organization offers many learning opportunities for volunteers. During the project in our organization, a volunteer can learn something about: – social work – social system in Czech republic.
