The Associazione Locanda del Samaritano O.D.V. runs several facilities in the city of Catania that take in homeless people or people in extreme poverty. The association now wants to offer a job opportunity in the accommodation sector to young people in the province who are in difficult situations.

What the project involves

This project will allow those who will be employed in its activities to undertake a path of autonomy and integration by working in some accommodation facilities in the city of Catania.

On the other hand, those who spend the holiday period will find people who had the courage to ask for help to get their lives back on track.

Expected Outcomes

  • Offering young people with financial difficulties the chance to learn a trade and become independent
  • Growth and social independence
  • Offering a quality accommodation service to tourists

The beneficiaries

An estimated five staff members to ensure the coverage of guest services with shifts and rest. Throughout the year, the project aims to involve 20 young people in employment integration, offering them a valuable opportunity for growth and learning, but also a first contact with the employment world. The project will have a positive impact on their families and the users of the holiday homes where they will work, ensuring a quality service.
