Since 2012, Andrei Association, is coordinator of volunteer activities in partnership with several schools and kindergartens from Dolj County, during National Volunteer Week, events organized on nationwide. On this occasion was held a lot of activities: exhibitions, concerts, promotion of a healthy lifestyle, donations, recycling, greening spaces, sports competitions, etc.. Beneficiaries of these activities were elders from the "Home for the Elderly" in Craiova, preschoolers and school children and local community institutions involved. The purpose of these activities was to popularize volunteering among youth and civil society.
Another activity that the association proposed to youth is some team sports (dedicated to Day of Nonformal education) during which they practiced a number of outdoor sports: football, volleyball, tennis, etc. Through participation in sport and physical education, young people learn about the importance of key values such as: honesty, teamwork, fair play, respect for themselves and others, and adherence to rules.
