Every year the Refugee Welcome Picnic brings together 158 neighbors in Durham. I help organize it with 4 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for serving food, washing up and welcoming guests. Shifts are two to three hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers.
It's a long-standing tradition, and our goal is to keep it free. No experience is necessary - we'll brief everyone at the start of the day.
If you can come with a friend, even better. Please say in the comments which shift works for you.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Rooting for you, Ángel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Setagaya.
