Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Hi there, I am Maria, from Portugal! Soon I will be the latest in 1,200+ volunteers from over 40 nations who have come for weeks at a time to stand shoulder to shoulder with refugees at difficult times in their journey.

The Dignity Centre in Nicosia, Cyprus offers a range of support. At its heart is the Dignity Market – a highly innovative way of distributing food to an ever-changing group of refugees and asylum seekers in greatest need. It’s dignified, offers choice and allows for a little normality. The food is critical and it helps but what they are really doing is feeding spirits.

Your donation enables them to move quickly because needs are always changing. That way of working has enabled them to launch innovative services, move to new refugee camps, respond immediately to crises, set up bases in new countries, do something completely different and create whole new enterprises.

Help me to make the best out of it and help the Refugee Support to create a world where all refugees can love a life with dignity.
