Serve the City Geneva organizes 4 or 5 events a year, focussing on the people in our midst who most need a helping hand. Each event comprises a number of different activities, such as building maintenance and cleaning, garden maintenance, preparing and serving meals, spending time with handicapped kids, weed-clearing in nearby forests, and so on.

These events are undertaken together with our service providers – organizations which provide help to various members of the community throughout the year.

We do NOT organize regular daily or weekly activities. The local clearing-house for regular volunteer work is the Centre Genevois de Volontariat (only in French!).

Au Coeur des Grottes near the train station in Geneva looks after women in distress, and is happy to receive your donations.

The Salvation Army has two thrift shops (Brocantes de l’Armée du Salut) in Geneva and one in Nyon.
