Our community for men

As something completely new in Red Cross Capital, we have started a community for men who are in a difficult situation and are in crisis. In collaboration with Mandecenteret, a crisis center for men, we will build a network and provide good experiences for those men and their children who have or are in a crisis center and who want to meet other like-minded people.

With this network we want to create a space where you can show up as you are, where it is not taboo to be in crisis, and where you can build new relationships, have good experiences and be introduced to opportunities and offers in civil society. We want to reduce loneliness and make the transition from shelter to your own home less difficult.

The community is taking place Wednesday evening 17-21 pmHere it will be a mix of going on trips together (with and without children), visiting community services in the local area, eating together and presenting the men with some of the options available when they leave the shelter.

We are looking for two activity managers, who will be responsible for arranging and coordinating activities in the community in an even and odd week, respectively.

As an activity manager, in addition to being a volunteer in the community, you are responsible for:

  • Plan and coordinate activities every other week (odd or even week)
  • Welcoming new participants and volunteers so that everyone feels safe and welcome
  • Collaboration with the activity leader on community development
  • Be a regular participant every other week with the volunteer team
  • Meet participants openly and without prejudice – you must be able to accommodate men in crisis
  • Have the opportunity to volunteer for at least 1 year

Why become a volunteer in our men's community?

  • You make a concrete and important difference for men on their way forward in life.
  • You will be part of a newly started team where you can help shape the community
  • You will gain experience in planning and organizing activities for people in vulnerable situations.
  • You build relationships and experience the power of community up close
