We preserve humanity

Hi I'm Alessandro and I volunteered in Greece with Operation Dove - the nonviolent peace corps of the Pope John XXIII Community - along the path of people fleeing their country to pursue a hope.The hope is for a life far from suffering, war, persecution. However, if they make it to Europe, these people still find agony.The wait for entry procedures into our society are demeaning; the conditions inhumane; violence pollutes every shred of humanity.In this context, however, I have found people still capable of dreaming. People like R., an Iraqi woman who, after crying about the violence in the refugee camp, smiled and hugged me.For all of them and for us, we are there to preserve the sense of joy, of tenderness. We are there to preserve the sense of humanity.If you, like me, want to participate in this great embrace, you can do so by supporting Operation Dove's activities in Greece through a donation. Thank you!

Hi I'm Alessandro and I volunteered in Greece with Operation Dove - the nonviolent peace corps of the Pope John XXIII Community - along the path of people fleeing their country to pursue a hope.


The hope is for a life far from suffering, war, persecution. However, if they make it to Europe, these people still find agony.


The wait for entry procedures into our society are demeaning; the conditions inhumane; violence pollutes every shred of humanity.


In this context, however, I have found people still capable of dreaming. People like R., an Iraqi woman who, after crying about the violence in the refugee camp, smiled and hugged me.


For all of them and for us, we are there to preserve the sense of joy, of tenderness. We are there to preserve the sense of humanity.

The fundraiser supports the project: In Greece to walk alongside migrant people
Total project goal: 20.000 €

Greece is the European Union's first port of call for those fleeing war and persecution. Those who arrive here often find themselves alone, forced to live on the streets. Volunteers from the Pope John XXIII Community, together with Operation Dove, visit people living in and outside refugee camps to offer them support and services, and monitor and report on the human rights violations they suffer. Their presence is crucial: support them on this journey of peace.
