Refugee Social Program in Cyprus

Thousands of refugee families and individuals from Iraq, Egypt, Syria, Sudan and Somalia have been uprooted from their homes and forced to seek refuge in a foreign country. IDEAS partners with the Oasis Project, a community of care and love for refugees in the Larnaca area of Cyprus. Almost 150 refugee families with desperate needs find peace and a sense of belonging through this project’s services of English teaching, food distribution, a café and social programs, discussion groups and activities.

You will have the opportunity to participate in ongoing project events; English language teaching, food bagging and distribution, café management, discussion groups on health and social issues, and special outings and activities. And you will have the opportunity to turn your good ideas for social events and excursions into reality, managing approved new events from start to finish.

This volunteer opportunity will also meet one on one with individuals and families as relationships deepen, enjoying friendship, offering hospitality, and investing in them.
