Nathalie Gales has been a scout leader with the organisation Lëtzebuerger Guiden a Scouten for 14 years. As a committed volunteer, she is committed to bringing smiles to the faces of many young people. Meet her.
1. How did you join the organisation Lëtzebuerger Guiden a Scouten?
When I was 6 years old, my parents registered me as a scout.
2. How long have you been a volunteer?
I have been a volunteer scout leader for 14 years.
3. Why did you get involved?
I had a great time as a Scout in my childhood and teenage years and I would like to enable children and young people to do the same.
4. What are your missions?
At local level, I am a leader of a group of young people aged between 13 and 17 years old as well as the secretary of the local group's association.
At national level, I am responsible for the sustainable development working group and a member of the organising group of a big national scout camp.
5. How do you feel useful?
By organising all kinds of activities and getting involved, we enable young people to have a good time and contribute to the continuation of scouting.
6. What are your sources of satisfaction?
I have two main sources of satisfaction: seeing that so many children and young people can still have such a good time in scouting and the strong collective feeling that characterises scouting.

Since 2002, the Agence du Bénévolat's mission has been to promote and develop volunteering in Luxembourg among organisations that call on volunteers, the general public and the public authorities.
L'Agence du Bénévolat propose aux associations des formations gratuites autour de la création et de la gestion d'une asbl et élargit son service de consultations juridiques individuelles pour mieux répondre aux besoins spécifiques des acteurs de terrain.
As part of its action to support voluntary organisations, the Agence du Bénévolat is organising an information session on Thursday 1 June at 6 pm, in partnership with SOCIALware, on IT solutions at reduced prices.
On the occasion of International Women's Day (8 March), we have selected 4 organisations that contribute to improving women's conditions in Luxembourg and worldwide.
Anne Hoffmann, executive director of the Agence du Bénévolat, was recently a guest on Radio Ara. This was a good opportunity to recall our services in favour of volunteers and organisations.
