Volunteer day: Refugee Welcome Picnic, Pretoria
We're short of hands for the Refugee Welcome Picnic; can you spare a morning?
🇿🇦 Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa442 views
Every year the Refugee Welcome Picnic brings together 226 neighbors in Pretoria. I help organize it with 11 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for set-up, serving, translation and clean-up. 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 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Thinking of you, Lesego. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up
Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
