Giving back has always been a part of community and culture. It’s been said that the best gift one can give to others is one’s time. While volunteer work can take several forms and serve various aspects of the organization, it also provides vital assistance to those in need, supports worthy causes, and even advocates for the necessary support to the entire community.
Here are some places where you can volunteer at:
The Saturday Biryani Party With Workers
Saturday Biryani Party with Construction Workers is a weekly initiative that involves sharing Biryani meals with construction workers at their work sites. Since their inception in May 2015, they have shared approximately 7,000 complete biryani meals. It is a very modest attempt to raise community awareness about the working conditions of these people.
Be a part of this initiative in any capacity you can by calling 39874541.
Oneheartbahrain
