RED CROSS
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
The Red Cross in Aarhus is an independent division of the Danish Red Cross. We work and engage in the local community in Aarhus municipality. Currently, we have more than 40 activities in the municipality, where we help people who are experiencing loneliness, homeless people, people without a network and people in need of aid. Also, we provide courses and education and have several second-hand stores in the city. We are in constant development as we strive to provide voluntary help, when the need for it arises.
As an international volunteer with the Red Cross in Aarhus you’ll primarily help in our second-hand stores. Therefore, we are especially looking for volunteers who are interested in promoting sustainability and second-hand shopping by providing our customers with quality service and hand-selected, preloved products. We currently have eight secondhand stores in and around Aarhus – the second largest city in Denmark. Our second-hand stores are our primary source of income and help pay for the different humanitarian activities we have in Aarhus.
Therefore, as an ESC volunteer with us, your primary focus will be our secondhand area where you’ll primarily be attached to 2-3 shops on the daily. However, it is also possible to get involved with other events and activities while you are here. You’ll find that we are very open to new ideas and that you will be able to impact the projects you work on.
- Have an interest in Reuse – and the process of getting donations, sorting, pricing and selling reuse items at our Reuse shops
- Be able to cooperate – you’ll work closely with Danish volunteers, interns, employees and different companies
- Have an interest in promoting sustainability, second-hand shopping and the Red Cross in Aarhus
- Speak, understand and write English
- Have an understanding of volunteer work and the positive impact it can have on a local community
- Have general IT-knowledge
- Have a driver license and be comfortable driving in a foreign country
BEING AT THE PROJECT

-
- Costumer service in the second hand shops
- Picking up donations from different venues and containers
- Sorting and pricing clothes and other items
- Participating in promotion of our second shops
- Decorating second hand shops for the different seasons and events
