Vieraasta Veljeksi helps immigrant men in finding employment and integrating into Finnish Society. Mentoring and discussion groups are the main forms of activity.
Mentoring Program
Mentors are voluntary Finnish-speaking men who help immigrants in finding job opportunities and getting accustomed to Finnish culture and labour market. This offers the mentor an opportunity to learn something new as well.
Vieraasta Veljeksi aims to find immigrants and Finnish-speaking volunteers with professional training. Let us know if you are interested in participating either as a mentor or as an immigrant.
