Valencian Community Volunteers’ Platform

PVCV – Platafoma de Voluntariat de la Comunitat Valenciana (Valencian Community Volunteers’ Platform) is a network of non-profit organisations made up of different entities, which are united by the common nexus of volunteering, with the idea of promoting and disseminating Voluntary Action in Society. The network is composed by a huge number of entities and focused on different issues of our society such a Cáritas (charity), ADAI (people suffered Ictus) and ASPANION (child cancer), so it is possible to perform volunteering action in different NGOs.
