A refugee camp project –Hi everyone, we are a non-profit organization operating since 2016 in refugee camps in Greece. Refugees are people coming mainly from:
- Syria,
- Kurdistan,
- Afghanistan,
- Iraq.
We provide basic medical assistance, organize English and science lessons, recreational and educational activities for adults and children, distribute basic necessities such as diapers, eyeglasses, hygiene products etc. Also, we work with the utmost commitment, seriousness and empathy to try to help these people, forced for years to wait for their relocation to a European country and meanwhile abandoned to themselves in truly precarious conditions.
We need volunteers from July 2020, compatibly with the ongoing pandemic.

Some more information about the organization:
La luna di Vasilika (Vasilika’s Moon) was born in autumn 2016 during a volunteering experience in the fields around Thessaloniki with other associations, no longer operating in Greece.
Going back home, and staying in different was not possible. We wanted to continue to be alongside these people, who have fled their war-torn country and are now forced to “survive” in the refugee camps waiting for a better future. We want to be there physically, providing them with basic necessities and medical assistance, giving English lessons, and exchanging tales on European customs and habits, creative and artistic activities. Over the years, many volunteers have joined us, and this experience drastically changed their lives .
