Scouts and Guides contributing to refugee support activities in their local communities in Europe (6): a story from Greece:

Ελληνικός Προσκοπισμός (Scouts of Greece, the National Scout Organisation in Greece, member of World Organization of the Scout Movement – WOSM) partnered with Médecins du Monde Greece – Γιατροί του Κόσμου in a common project : ‘Α boat full of medical supplies, for the refugees’.

The boat is a symbol tied to the pain of those families, children, women and men who are forced to flee their homes because of war. But the boat is also a symbol of solidarity: throughout the month of October 2015 Scouts from local Groups across Greece will collect pharmaceutical products and other medical supplies to support the activities of Médecin du Monde Greece in areas of high refugee influx.

With the help of their families and local communities, Greek Scouts will thus help fill… A BOAT OF MEDICAL SUPPLIES FOR THE REFUGEES.”
