Now, we continue our work distributing ingredients as it gives people greater autonomy in cooking their own food to suit their own tastes, practices and schedules. The response to our service, alongside the relationships of trust and the routine we have established amongst communities, is why we plan to continue our services for as long as we are needed.

Athens (main city pin) |Wir engagieren uns für geflüchtete Menschen. Alle zwei bis drei Wochen fahren freiwillige HelferInnen mit unserem Support Convoy in Flüchtlingscamps, wo wir den Menschen auf ihrer lebensbedrohlichen Flucht trockene Kleidung, Decken und Zelte zur Verfügung stellen und gemeinsam mit ihnen wärmende Getränke und Essen zubereiten. Entstanden ist unsere Initiative als Reaktion auf die humanitäre Katastrophe auf den Flüchtlingsrouten, die die erste Gruppe von Freiwilligen im November 2015 dazu bewog an die serbisch-mazedonische Grenze zu fahren, um gegen die beißende Kälte des Winters anzukämpfen. Auf unseren Webseiten berichten wir täglich von unseren Tätigkeiten und über die Lage vor Ort.
