Association Calendar
After discussions with associations in the town, the town of Jakobstad has made an association calendar (where you also can ask for volunteers): https://foreningar.jakobstad.fi/en. The association calendar can also be found on the town’s website under “Leisure Time”. The association calendar is easy to use. The first step is to create an account for the association. When you add an event in the calendar you can simultaneously ask for volunteers. From the resident’s perspective a volunteering event (talko) can be an easy way to get familiar with an association’s activity. The idea is that associations can add their events in the calendar well in advance, as the calendar is shown month by month and it is therefore easy to get an overview of what is happening. The association calendar is made for associations in the town, who want to be visible in Jakobstad.
