In 2015, 856,000 people passed through the Greek islands, and in 2017 and 2018 only just under 30 thousand (according to UNHCR). But 2019 brought already a growth – over 60,000 newcomers. Today, boats coming to Greek beaches are back again, and practice shows that you can get stuck in Lesbos for a good few years. Nikos and Katerina run a small restaurant on the island, where every refugee can feel at home and eat a meal for free.

No. We are not making contact with alien civilisations. We are boiling water. A few litres in just 10 minutes. Without electricity, coal, gas, or even batteries. Today at Home for All we are testing a solar cooker. A clear sky is enough to cook a meal for the whole family on this device, make tea in the meantime and heat water for the bath. Can you imagine how many problems this invention would solve in the Greek camp and… in Africa?!?!
A wonderful privilege that stems from our work and regular visits to our projects are meetings with people who are learning to provide help in a clever way and those who are already experts in it. Such acquaintances help us exchange ideas, look for new, innovative and sometimes revolutionary solutions to the problems faced by the people in our care. Thanks to such people, nothing is impossible, and thanks to you, we can not only dream about the impossible, but simply make it a reality.
Give us a High Five! Do this regularly by setting up a standing order. It’s easy and only takes a few minutes. 5 PLN donated once a week is only 20 PLN a month. Let us convince you of what great things we will be able to do TOGETHER!!!

“Do you see how small they are?” “I see tears in your eyes.” “Because I feel like crying. Olives the size of raisins. The only thing I can think of is to water all the trees. But there are thousands of them. It’s impossible.” Not a cloud in the sky. The heat in Greece shows […]

A refugee I am Forced to flee, I become someone I am not These few lines from a Lao Che song have been on my mind all morning. The World Refugee Day, which we celebrate today, could easily be called World Day of Helplessness, Lack of Solidarity, Fences, Barriers, and Lack of Hospitality. “In Nigeria, […]
