Volunteer day: Neighborhood Winter Coat Drive, Istanbul
Our small team in Istanbul is running the Neighborhood Winter Coat Drive and needs volunteers for set-up, serving and clean-up.
🇹🇷 Istanbul, Istanbul, Türkiye802 views
Every year the Neighborhood Winter Coat Drive brings together 391 neighbors in Istanbul. I help organize it with 7 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for registration, sorting donations and carrying boxes. Shifts are 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.
Glad we found this place.

Thinking of you and your family, Metin. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Hope it all works out, Metin. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 21 years in nursing I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
You're not alone. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Calgary.
