VAS

At VAS, we want to promote social service activities in order to involve the university community in solidarity projects that improve the quality of life of those most in need, transforming the social reality in which they find themselves, as well as that of the volunteers who participate in these projects. We accompany students with social concerns in volunteer activities to educate them and encourage them to ask questions.

• Promote the supportive and committed training of future professionals in all sectors, with the aim of creating a more just and supportive social reality.

• To become a student society whose members are a benchmark for social commitment.

• Transform the world based on the reality that surrounds us, our immediate environment.

• Working with the most disadvantaged, doing our bit to achieve a better society.

• Convey this need to the rest of the university students.

• Encourage students to reflect on their lives from the perspective of social commitment and service to others.

Commitment, solidarity, honesty, generosity, friendship, proactivity, spirit of self-improvement, responsibility, and service.

Based on the premise that UFV student societies do not want to separate action from training, the VAS proposes to accompany its members during their volunteer work in different ways. On the one hand, all activities are carried out in the presence of one or more trainers from the Social Action team, who share the experience with them.

On the other hand, it is important to note that in order to sign up for these activities, it is essential to attend the training sessions that take place on Wednesdays at 12 noon. Finally, after the activity, there is always a space for reflection and discussion where trainers and students learn from the experience.

Send an email to vas@ufv.es with your name, surname, degree program, year of study, and ID number, or drop by the Social Action Department (Módulo 3, edificio central). We will contact you and tell you everything you need to know. We look forward to seeing you! We also have a space in the virtual classroom where you will find all the information about activities, training, the updated calendar, documents to download, and a space to share your experience.

For any volunteer initiative you may have, you can send an email to vas@ufv.es. We will be happy to advise you, help you, and follow up on your project, if it meets the appropriate requirements.

Commitment, service, and transformation through encounter.
