Be a Robin Projects
Current Projects
Donate for displaced people in Como
Together with local non-profit organisations, Be A Robin has been supporting refugees in Como since 2016. Be A Robin creates stability in uncertain times by providing donations in kind such as winter clothing, organising group excursions and providing constant financial support.
Past Projects
Thessaloniki
At the beginning of this year, three of our Robins travelled to Northern Greece to provide assistance in the acute crisis of the displaced people stranded there. Since the closure of the Balkan route in March 2016, tens of thousands of refugees have been living in an unknown number of official and unofficial refugee camps in the region around Thessaloniki.
Pame
Since 2017, we have been helping displaced people in Thessaloniki to build an independent life, whether it's through integration into the labour market, financial assistance or language courses. Our goal is to offer them prospects, to break the cycle of lethargy and isolation and to promote their independence – individually, sustainably and flexibly tailored to their needs. In doing so, we fill the gaps that state support often cannot cover.
Lampetia (Winter)
After working with displaced people in Sindos in the summer, it was clear to us as an organisation that we would offer excursions and activities again this winter. The idea was simple: rent a minibus and take families to exciting and beautiful places. This way, they would be free, even if only for a few hours, and escape their daily worries and boredom.
