DOFE
Don't let others decide for you. Prove to yourself what is in you!
What is DOFE
DOFE is a challenge for everyone from 13 to 24 years old. Discover your strengths (and maybe even weaknesses) and experience things that will push you. Embark on a journey that will show you what you're really made of.
You choose the activities you enjoy, from three areas: movement, skill and volunteering. You spend an hour a week on those. You're also going to be expeditions with friends. If you can handle everything, you'll get a certificate that'll get you fired. DOFE is for everyone, so join in!
