🌍 INTERNATIONAL VOLUNTEER DAY! ❤️
Thank you to all of you, beautiful souls from all over the world, for your support! ✨
Ten years ago our founder and leader, Omar Alshakal, arrived in Lesvos and started volunteering in the refugee crisis in Greece. He was young, but already had years of experience with humanitarian work and crisis management, always as a volunteer. He was only seventeen when he started, because war broke out in his home country, Syria. 💔
In April 2017, he founded Refugee 4 Refugees, and his relentless efforts to help people in need continue, and he is now back in Syria!
Omar works in the field, but volunteering is also so much more than that, because everything he does depends on the funding, and that again depends on how many people we can reach, with our appeal for support.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us in helping vulnerable people, in a huge variety of different ways, from field work to pressing the share button. You are all volunteers and we are extremely grateful! 🫶🏽🫶
But we still need your support!
Evers share and every donation makes a difference. If we all bring one rock each, large or small, together we can build a mountain!
