Join the Refugee Welcome Picnic: Céline needs helpers on Tuesday
Our small team in Nîmes is running the Refugee Welcome Picnic and needs volunteers for set-up, serving and clean-up.
🇫🇷 Nîmes, Occitanie, France887 views
Every year the Refugee Welcome Picnic brings together 102 neighbors in Nîmes. I help organize it with 11 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for registration, sorting donations and carrying boxes. 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Wishing you the best, Céline. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care!
Wishing you the best, Céline. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Nîmes
Best of luck, Céline. Hope this works out for you.
Hang in there. Great idea, hope you get there. Sent it to 5 people at work. God bless
rooting for you. Great idea, hope you get there. Love from Madina.
