Between May 19 and 25, Trenčín will once again become a city of goodness, solidarity, and togetherness. Volunteer Week offers a diverse programme for everyone who wants to lend a helping hand – whether with a book in hand, with children, in a gallery, or directly on the street during Korzo Soblahovská.
Volunteering changes the world – first our own, then the one around us. Volunteer Week is a return to humanity, togetherness, and simple acts that have the power to change the atmosphere of an entire city. Trenčín 2026 invites everyone who wants to experience the power of collective action to take part in a rich programme from Monday to Sunday.
