Volunteer day: Free Community Meal, Dehiwala
Our small team in Dehiwala is running the Free Community Meal and needs volunteers for set-up, serving and clean-up.
🇱🇰 Dehiwala, Western, Sri Lanka668 views
Every year the Free Community Meal brings together 433 neighbors in Dehiwala. I help organize it with 9 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for serving food, washing up and welcoming guests. Shifts are four hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers.
It's a family-friendly day, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
