PROYECTO “¿Y SI FUERAS TÚ...? ¡SIÉNTATE A LA MESA!”
Es una campaña de sensibilización y concienciación desarrollada por la Fundación Hospitalaria de la Orden de Malta de España -FHOME- con la que queremos dar a conocer, mediante la vivencia, la difícil situación de precariedad alimentaria que viven 1 de cada 5 personas en nuestro país.

Voluntariado corporativo: “Siéntate a la mesa y comparte”
Cada comedor social necesita una media diaria de 20/25 personas. A través del voluntariado queremos vivir la solidaridad entre personas, compartir historias de vida, experiencias, inquietudes, deseos y sueños. La persona voluntaria tendrá la oportunidad de conocer de primera mano, algunas causas de la pobreza y la exclusión social y de tomar conciencia de lo que supone gozar -o no gozar- de ciertas ventajas que da la vida. Sin duda, un acto solidario que ofrece la oportunidad de valorar y celebrar las pequeñas cosas de la vida.

Queremos ofrecer a los empleados de Google la oportunidad de implicarse en una experiencia social que les transformará y enriquecerá a la vez que mostrar apoyo y solidaridad hacia personas en situación de exclusión en la ciudad de Madrid y Sevilla.

Esta colaboración generará un impacto en la sociedad, en la compañía, en los equipos de trabajo y en especial, en las a personas en riesgo de exclusión social y/o excluidas que atiende FHOME.

Nuestros voluntarios
20/25 Voluntarios al día son necesarios para el comedor. Actualmente el comedor cuenta con una Base de Datos de 700 voluntarios que a través de rotación por equipos, organizan y coordinan todas las tareas del comedor social, durante todos los días del año. Las principales funciones del voluntario son:
• Reposición de almacenes
• Preparación de las mesas
• Atención a personas vulnerables en puerta y acompañándoles en las mesas
