The role of volunteer

Do you share the values promoted by our project and would you like to give a little of yourself to it? Becoming a volunteer at Le Refuge Bruxelles means becoming part of a team of volunteers of all ages and backgrounds who devote time and resources to the accomplishment of the various missions around which our action is based.

The time commitment depends on your availability: some volunteers choose to be involved every week, while others prefer to participate on an ad hoc basis. The only time constraint: every second Thursday of the month, we organise a volunteer meeting, either face-to-face or online, to take stock of the situation, discuss upcoming events, propose new projects and get to know newcomers. These meetings are also an ideal opportunity to strengthen the bonds of the team.
