Upcoming opportunities
ATHENS, GREECE - SUMMER July 20-30, 2024
Join us in this ancient city, the gateway to Europe. This is a remarkable context for international homeless mission - firstly to serve some of the most broken peoples on the planet as they journey from various nations towards Europe due to persecution, economic depravity and the ravages of war.
Metro Relief will give you the opportunity to directly engage refugee peoples from the various camps surrounding Athens and to serve them at their point of need.
More than 75,000 refugees and migrants are trapped in Greece due to sealed borders across the so-called Balkan route and the March 2016 deal between Turkey and the European Union. Afghan, Syrian and Ukrainian conflicts have only added to Greece's challenge.
ONLY A FEW SPACES LEFT.

It is the highest mountain in Africa and the highest single free-standing mountain above sea level in the world: 5,895m above sea level and about 4,900m (Elevation: 19,341′) above its plateau base.
There are six established routes to climb Mount Kilimanjaro – Marangu, Machame, Lemosho, Shira, Rongai and Umbwe. We will be climbing the Machame route over 6 days, 8-9 days with descent.
