Lighthouse Relief is a Swedish NGO with a branch based in Greece, registered as the Greek NGO Lighthouse Relief Hellas. We are operating with skilled volunteers from all over the world. We provide relief to refugees who are stranded in mainland Greece (Ritsona) and to those still arriving on the Greek island of Lesvos. On Lesvos, we also support the local residents in restoring their beautiful island through our Lighthouse ECO Relief clean-up project and are currently working on an upcycling project to utilise salvaged materials.

Fantastic time on the island. Mainly helped out with The Lighthouse Relief team, at camp Kara-Tepe and Pikpa. My advice is to contact the organisations in advice and really plan what you will do but don't be afraid for plans to change and to improvise day to day. If it's a long stay, stick with one organisation. If like me you were a helping hand see what you can do and who needs the most help urgently. Make the most of it and communicate with each other! facebook is great, whatsapp is great. Get a cheap smartphone and a greek sim, sorted. Definitely plan on coming back hopefully in June or July. Keep up th good work everyone.
