Looking to volunteer? Join SB Espoir & give hope to refugees in your community

we have been active supporting refugees in Brussels, from working with young people arriving to Park Maximillian on an ad-hoc and needs-based basis to now the SB Espoir

project that works directly in the accommodation centres that host young asylum-seeking minors and women, conducting life skills and psychosocial support activities that support them for their new life in Brussels.

As an SB Espoir volunteer, you will be participating in our activities during the weekends, this range from sporting to life skills training to arts and crafts. These activities focus on team building and skills training, this way we can support the youth’s inclusion in their new home and develop their skills. However, they not only develop the youth’s skills but also those of our volunteers as it will push you out of your comfort zone working with people from all over the world coming from very different backgrounds which will test your intercultural and communication skills.
