One day like many, on Lesbos

A day like many, on #Lesbos

We meet at 8.30 in front of the #HomeForAll taverna.
Today I cooked with Christine and Ewa. We are a good team, challenges are solved quickly and together. Producing over 1000 meals, which HfA then distributes to particularly vulnerable people in and outside the camp, is only possible with WE.
Especially when you know that everything has to be ready by 14.30 at the latest.
My esteemed colleague Fayad packed hundreds of salads and, together with Günther, took care of the distribution outside the camp. I don't need to mention that Fayad is reliable for everything logistically. Without him, the work in this dimension would not be possible.

Luna, who has been volunteering with us again for weeks, was in the meantime at the warehouse we are financing in Mytelini all day to prepare the clothing packages for the "newcomers" today. They are to be delivered to the camp tomorrow morning.

Since the legal situation of those affected is very important to us - we don't want to preserve this cruel situation, we want to fight it - we had a very good appointment with Nantina and her colleague Iris later in the afternoon.
They are both lawyers and work in Athens for an NGO that accompanies underage protection seekers and does a lot to ensure that they get their rights.
They have also met protection seekers here on the island, whose legal counselling we finance.
We are very grateful for the good work they are doing and also that they are on our wave.
#HumanRights#EvacuateNow

We will soon travel to #Chios again, the conditions there are unbelievable, and before our well-deserved holiday, after 3 1/2 months in Greece with all these challenges, we will stay in Athens for a few days to decide what to do after our stay at home.
One thing is certain, however, we will definitely be on the road again for people on the run and for the protection of their rights.

We sincerely thank all those who have accompanied and supported us intensively since January, without you our work would not be possible.

We still have intensive days ahead of us, but honestly, we are very much looking forward to coming home at the end of June. Sincerely,
