Bornova
Every year the Refugee Welcome Picnic brings together 436 neighbors in Bornova. I help organize it with 10 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • you're not alone, İbrahim. More neighborhoods should do this. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Rome.
