Volunteer day: Refugee Welcome Picnic, Barranquilla
We're short of hands for the Refugee Welcome Picnic; can you spare a morning?
🇨🇴 Atlántico, Colombia498 views
Every year the Refugee Welcome Picnic brings together 504 neighbors in Barranquilla. I help organize it with 6 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for set-up, serving, translation and clean-up. 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Take care, Cristina. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Thanks for sharing this, Cristina. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Nakhon Ratchasima donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Barranquilla
