Do not feel
powerless.
Help us save our community center Paréa to keep a place of hope and community on Lesvos alive.
During these difficult times, it’s more important than ever to stand in solidarity with people on the move and resist against the growing tides of intolerance we’re witnessing in Europe.
​
We need to raise 50.000€ to keep Paréa Lesvos running strong through 2025. The island continues to be the first entry point for people seeking safety in Greece, we’re committed to staying as long as we are needed. Together, we can keep Paréa Lesvos thriving as a beacon of hope, solidarity, and resilience for people on the move.
​
By joining our community of supporters, you will be part of a movement that stands against the rising tide of racism, intolerance, and xenophobia in Europe, for a fairer and more inclusive society, where all individuals—regardless of their background—have the opportunity to thrive. ​
