CURRENT VOLUNTEERING OPPORTUNITIES FOR VOLUNTEERS IN ATHENS as at 23 August
Please read the pinned post and google docs for more information, locations and contacts. It is essential that new volunteers read the guidance on volunteering in Athens to familiarise themselves about Athens before starting their volunteering.
If you are new to volunteering in Athens, please consider spending your first couple of days at the Ellinikon Warehouse helping with the sorting of donations. If you can only volunteer for 1 day or a few hours then the Warehouse is the best place to help. More information below:
Please contact the project/team leaders directly to sort out your volunteering arrangements.
When you are offering your help and agreeing to a date and time, please do honour that commitment. Team leaders and project managers rely on you and sometimes turn other people away if they think they have enough volunteers. Therefore please only commit to helping if you are definitely committed to helping.
