Solidarity Christmas Village 2026 - Last Call!

Opis
Every November, right in the heart of Katerini, we set up a large-scaled fully sustainable Christmas Village with a twist: absolutely no money needed. As entry to the premise and for free access to all the offerings an adult may contribute a bag of groceries (pasta, rice, canned food) whereas children leave a book. Following the principle of circular economy, at the end the collected books are donated to the libraries of the regional nursery schools, while the foodstuff stocks up the warehouse of our “Social Goods Distribution”, supporting people in dire need. At the same time, a uniquely inclusive social space is created, where people with financial or cultural hurdles have easy access to. The participants of the Volunteering Team will be involved in every aspect of preparation and execution of the event (spreading hay, decorating, caring for the small and big visitors, maintaining the facilities) as well as showcasing their own traditions in a creative, inclusive way.

For the duration of their visit, volunteers' accommodation, food and transport will be fully taken care of by the organization. Additionally, every volunteer recieves a fixed amount of pocket-money. For their stay, participants are accommodated in our heated volunteering apartments with space for up to 24 people (4 in each room). All accommodation is directly on the premises. Meals will be provided and prepared in and by Kapnikos Stathmos to be enjoyed together as a group.

Profil účastníka
If you enjoy teamwork, aren't afraid of hard work, and are eager to make a meaningful contribution, this opportunity is perfect for you! We are seeking motivated individuals who thrive in a team setting and appreciate being part of a diverse community. You should feel at ease interacting with children and be able to create a positive, respectful environment for them. While spare time is important for building connections with fellow volunteers and the local community, working hours are dedicated to focused, productive tasks. This project involves hands-on activities outside, so you’ll need to be ready for physical work that might leave you a bit dirty or tired, but ultimately very fulfilled. Respecting rules and boundaries of others and of the organization itself is key to ensuring a safe, enjoyable experience for everyone involved!
