Partnerships That Make a Difference

We believe that collaboration creates the greatest impact. That’s why we connect the University with organisations that want to give students the opportunity to take part in meaningful projects and volunteer activities. Together, we build a community that benefits both people and the region while helping students develop valuable skills and a strong sense of civic responsibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can become a partner organisation?

Any institution or initiative that shares our values and offers meaningful opportunities for volunteers – including non-profit organisations, schools, municipalities, hospitals, cultural institutions and more.

How can we start working with the SU Volunteer Centre?

Simply email us at dobrovolnictvi@slu.cz. We’ll arrange a short meeting or online call to discuss possible forms of cooperation and the conditions for getting involved.
