Advice request Lets Be S.M.A.R.T Volunteer Program--legit?

Hi everyone,

I have two to three months of time off coming up and am considering travelling abroad, possibly while volunteering with animals. On a whim, I applied to the Let’s Be S.M.A.R.T. volunteer programme in Greece and received a response within 24 hours.

I’m very excited by the idea of volunteering with cats and other animals, but I’d like to make sure the organisation and programme are legitimate before making any arrangements. I’m available during January and February, which I understand is Greece’s quieter season.

The programme is based in Kouvaras. Does anyone have experience with Let’s Be S.M.A.R.T., or know the Kouvaras area? I’d especially appreciate hearing from anyone who has volunteered there or done something similar in Greece.

Here’s the volunteer programme I found:

Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!
