5. in April 2025, the All-Russian Volunteer Action Day for change, created with the aim of encouraging citizens to actively respond to the needs of their community, will take place again. Organized by the Slovenian philanthropy, the action will bring together many volunteers, volunteers, organizations, municipalities, schools, companies and other actors throughout Slovenia for the sixteenth year in a row.
"The world is spinning more and more strangely. We are watching wars, forced migrations, environmental disasters and social hardship, on the other hand, despite all the alarms on, we are watching the continued shameless exploitation of people and natural resources in the name of profit – the action that causes these crises. We are experiencing increasing internal discord, as we follow all these crises live, while trying to continue with our "normal" life. Volunteering is one of the last activities that puts human solidarity before material gain, strengthens relationships between people and encourages cooperation instead of competition. Volunteers are indeed some kind of aliens who communicate a rather radical message in today's society by doing something for others without the expectation of payment. Freedom also gives the individual the opportunity to activate their will, discover their potentials or overcome fears. But it may even offer a way that we can do something against the aforementioned crises of today's world. When we become volunteers, we refuse apathy and nags from the comfort of our home sofa. We activate our will and begin the process of changing – at least ourselves and our community, maybe even the universe. You are invited to this year's day for change, on which everyone can try themselves as a volunteer at least for a day and receive an unexpected payment in the form of well-being for activating their own will and allowing themselves to be human. "Franci Zlatar, executive director of Slovenian philanthropy
This year we will be 16. Day for Change organized actions throughout Slovenia under the motto may your will change the universe . With the slogan, We want to invite you to participate in the positive change of our universes – your communities, places, organizations, society and, last but not least, yourself-by activating your will!
The first step in organizing change day 2025 is to look around and explore the needs of the local community. Are the elderly lonely in their homes? Are young people too attached to their phones? Do the inhabitants of the place not yet know each other and could connect at a football tournament? Is the stream bed full of waste again? Are you disappointed in the decision-makers and would like to convey this to them in a public letter? You will quickly find things in your universe that you would like to change. Connect with other organizations and schools, work with companies, municipalities and individuals in your area and design a concrete action together.
You can activate at different levels:
To make it easier for you to plan actions, we have prepared manuals for you to carry out actions:
We leave you free to decide what action you want to carry out, because over the years we have perceived that the needs are very different. Just like last year, you can grab a volunteer shovel, grab a recovery brush, offer a volunteer shoulder of comfort or a hand of help – the only thing that matters is that you activate your will for positive change! We are aware that you are the one who knows the conditions and problems in your universe best, so we are sure that you yourself know what your place needs most.
Once you have designed the campaign, report it through the online form . The deadline for registration this year is 28 . March 2025.
You can follow all registered actions here: https://www.filantropija.org/danzaspremembe/

Dan za spremembe 2025 – Naj tvoja volja spreminja vesolja
5. aprila 2025 bo znova potekala vseslovenska prostovoljska akcija Dan za spremembe, ki je nastala z namenom spodbujanja državljanov in državljank k aktivnemu odzivu na potrebe svoje skupnosti. V organizaciji Slovenske filantropije bo akcija že šestnajsto leto zapored povezala številne prostovoljce, prostovoljke, organizacije, občine, šole, podjetja in druge akterje po celi Sloveniji.
» Svet se vse bolj čudno vrti. Spremljamo vojne, prisilne migracije, okoljske katastrofe in socialne stiske, na drugi strani kljub vsem prižganim alarmom opazujemo nadaljevanje brezsramnega izkoriščanja ljudi in naravnih virov v imenu dobička – početja, ki te krize povzroča. Doživljamo vse večje notranje neskladje, saj vse te krize spremljamo v živo, pri tem pa se trudimo nadaljevati s svojim »normalnim« življenjem. Prostovoljstvo je ena zadnjih aktivnosti, ki postavlja človeško solidarnost pred materialno korist, krepi odnose med ljudmi ter spodbuja sodelovanje namesto tekmovalnosti. Prostovoljci so tako res nekakšni vesoljci, ki komunicirajo neko v današnji družbi precej radikalno sporočilo, s tem ko počnejo nekaj za druge brez pričakovanja plačila. Posamezniku prostovoljenje tudi daje možnost, da aktivira svojo voljo, odkrije svoje potenciale ali premaga strahove. Morda pa celo ponuja način, da lahko kaj storimo zoper omenjene krize današnjega sveta. Ko postanemo prostovoljci, zavrnemo apatijo in nerganje iz udobja domačega kavča. Aktiviramo svojo voljo in začnemo proces spreminjanja – vsaj sebe in svoje skupnosti, morda celo vesolja. Vabljeni na letošnji Dan za spremembe, na katerem se lahko vsak vsaj za en dan preizkusi v vlogi prostovoljca in prejme nepričakovano plačilo v obliki dobrega počutja, ker je aktiviral lastno voljo in si dovolil biti človek. « Franci Zlatar, izvršni direktor Slovenske filantropije
Letos bomo v okviru 16. Dneva za spremembe po vsej Sloveniji organizirale akcije pod geslom Naj tvoja volja spreminja vesolja . S sloganom vas želimo povabiti, da z aktivacijo svoje volje sodelujete pri pozitivnem spreminjanju naših vesolj – svojih skupnosti, krajev, organizacij, družbe in nenazadnje sebe!
Prvi korak pri organizaciji Dneva za spremembe 2025 je, da se ozrete naokoli in raziščete potrebe lokalne skupnosti. So starostniki osamljeni na svojih domovih? So mladi preveč navezani na svoje telefone? Se prebivalci kraja še ne poznajo in bi se lahko povezali na nogometnem turnirju? Je struga potoka spet polna odpadkov? Ste razočarani nad odločevalci in bi jim želeli to sporočiti v javnem pismu? V svojem vesolju boste hitro našli stvari, ki bi jih želeli spremeniti. Povežite se z drugimi organizacijami in šolami, sodelujte s podjetji, občinami in posamezniki v vašem kraju ter skupaj zasnujte konkretno akcijo.
Aktivirate se lahko na različnih ravneh:
izvedete prostovoljsko akcijo znotraj vaše organizacije,
sodelujete v prostovoljski akciji v kraju, ki jo koordinira druga organizacija,
postanete nosilci oziroma koordinatorji prostovoljske akcije v svoji soseski.
Da boste akcije lažje načrtovali, smo vam pripravili priročnike za izvedbo akcij:
Prostovoljske organizacije
Šole
Občine
Podjetja
Prepuščamo vam proste roke pri odločitvi, kakšno akcijo želite izvesti, saj smo v preteklih letih zaznali, da so potrebe zelo različne. Tako kot lani lahko poprimete za prostovoljsko lopato, zagrabite za obnovitveni čopič, ponudite prostovoljsko ramo tolažbe ali roko pomoči – važno je le, da aktivirate svojo voljo za pozitivne spremembe! Zavedamo se, da ste prav vi tisti, ki najbolje poznate razmere in težave v svojem vesolju, zato smo prepričani, da sami veste, kaj vaš kraj najbolj potrebuje.
Ko boste akcijo zasnovali, jo prijavite prek spletnega obrazca . Rok za prijavo akcij letos je 28 . marec 2025.
Vse prijavljene akcije lahko spremljate tukaj: https://www.filantropija.org/danzaspremembe/
V primeru vprašanj nam pišite na danzaspremembe@filantropija.org ali pokličite na 051 775 237.
Prepričani smo, da lahko vsak nekaj prispeva. Vsak na svoj način in po svojih močeh!
