Bueno.... una pregunta para los espa�oles que son miembros de este foro tan maravilloso...
�Donde puedo ir para informarme sobre la posibilidad de ser voluntaria para una ONG aqu� en Madrid?
�Hay un colectivo general que reune todas las ONGs para promover sus ofertas para voluntarios y misiones? � es que los ONGs hace esto de forma individual...?
Di mucho de mi tiempo de forma voluntaria en Filadelfia... y ya que llevo 3 a�os en Espa�a... y todav�a no me he apuntado a nada... me siento absolutamente VAGA! Quiero ser voluntaria para una ONG que necesita mi tiempo.
Tengo muchos intereses y habilidades... es una cuesti�n de encontrar una ONG que me interesa... pero no s� por donde empezar. �Existe un base de datos de ONGs que puedo consultar?
El ayuntamiento tambi�n tiene una p�gina referente a Servicios Sociales pero no hay un link directo http://www.munimadrid.es/principal/ayuntamiento/organos.asp en la parte de la izq. donde pone ayuntamiento pinchas en Servicios Municipales y luego >Servicios Sociales>Voluntariado Social
Tengo un amigo que fund� una ONG, se llama "infancias sin fronteras" y principalmente ayudan a ni�os en sudamerica. Este es su direccion de correo :fgomez@infanciasinfronteras.org. El trabajaba en television, lleg�incluso a montar su propia productora , pero dejo todo para montar esta ONG y supongo que toda la ayuda que les llegue es bien agradecida.

El ayuntamiento puso en marcha una campa�a de solicitud de voluntarios para varios servicios(ancianos, inmigrantes, protecci�n civil,etc...)har� un par de meses. Todav�a se pueden ver los carteles en algunas paradas de autob�s. Dice que quien quiera participar llame al numero de informaci�n del Ayuntamiento, 010. Saludos

Hi, Becky!! This is Cristina. How unfortunate we didn't get to talk about this at the dinner. But anyway, I was wondering if you were able to find out anything more about the ONG issue. See, I've been doing NGO work too in the Philippines and would really love to get back to it. It's good to see someone interested too. That motivates me into moving my ass. If I find out something, I'll let you know and if you do so, likewise, I hope.
By the way, a few posts up, somebody said he had a friend who has an NGO for kids, if you have more info as to what kind of help he needs, please let me know. Anyone else, interested?? You get less lazy when you know other people are interested = ) Anyway, beck, will write if I find out something. Thanks for the links, guys.

Hi. If you are still looking for a place to volunteer, there is a Red Cross right by the store that is looking for volunteers. One of the girls who works in Joventud put a sign up recently. So if you are still interested ask for Ana Santa in the Red Cross on C/Pozas. Hope that helps.

I wrote to one of those Voluntarios por Madrid which give some sort of training and then you form part of a pool of volunteers or something like that. I am not really sure. I wanted more information and stuff but they said it would be better to pass by in their office at C/jose ortega y gasset, 100 from 9:30 to 19:30 (Beatriz Irata Gasc�n was the person who wrote me). And they are in Concejalia de Gobierno de Empleo y Servicios al ciudadano.
