IKS 20-ti rođendan
„Naša zajednica, naša odgovornost“ slogan je petrinjske Udruge IKS osnovane 2003. godine radi
pokretanja pozitivnih promjena u našoj zajednici, promicanje volonterstva, te građanskog
obrazovanja i aktivizma.
25. lipnja 2023. godine krenula sam avionom za Zagreb kako bih došla odraditi 2-mjesečnu praksu s
ovom udrugom, a čim sam stigla bilo je vrijeme za rođendan IKS-a. Tijekom cijelog tjedna uživali smo u izradi mnogih ukrasa kako bismo u svečano najavljenu večer unijeli dodatne boje. Unatoč vrućini volonteri, radnici IKS-a i ja čistili smo i uređivali urede u veselom i dobrom raspoloženju, kako bi što bolje dočekali goste. Također smo kupili brdo namirnica za pripremu jela i organizirali neke aktivnosti kao što je tombola.
Tijekom zabave sve je bilo savršeno, ljudi su se smijali, sve je bilo šareno, glazbena grupa angažirana
za tu priliku bila je izvrsna (bilo mi je zabavno pjevati na Harryju Styleovu glazbu s volonterkom
Jodie), a obrok koji je skuhala Melita bio je izvrstan.
Također smo uživali u slikanju uz fotokabinu koju smo napravili.
Uživala sam vidjeti kako svi radnici IKS-a dijele svoje vrijednosti i motivaciju, kao i vidjeti sve te ljude kako se zajedno zabavljaju. Osobno sam imala priliku sastati se i razgovarati s drugima s Arube, malog otoka u blizini Venezuele i to iskustvo je bilo zadovoljavajuće.
Jako sam uzbuđena što ću doživjeti još takvih iskustava s IKS timom!

“Our community, our responsibility” here is the slogan of IKS association in Petrinja founded in 2003
to create positive changes in our community, promote volunteering, civic education and activism.
On June 25, 2023, I took my flight to Zagreb in order to come and do a 2-month internship with this
association, as soon as I arrived, the time was up for the IKS birthday party. During a whole week we
took pleasure in making many decorations to bring colors to this evening that was already
announced festive. Despite the warmth, IKS volunteers and workers and I cleaned and set up the
offices in a joyful and good mood to welcome the guests as best we could. We also did a mountain of
groceries to prepare the meal and organized some activities such as a tombola.
During the party everything was perfect, people were laughing, everything was colorful, the music
group engaged for the occasion was excellent (we had a lot of fun singing on Harry Styles’s music with volunteer Jodie) and to finish the meal cooked by Melita was delicious.
We also enjoyed taking pictures with the photobooth we made.
I enjoyed seeing all the IKS workers share their values and share their motivation, I also enjoyed
seeing all these people together and having fun. I personally had the opportunity to meet and discuss
with others from Aruba, a small island near Venezuela which was very rewarding.
I am very excited to live other experience with IKS team!
