The GOYS are gearing for their very first volunteering mission and we need YOU!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHAT DO WE COLLECT Hats, scarves, gloves & socks (gently used or new) to keep Stockholm\u2019s homeless warm this winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHEN: Drop any of the above items at the St. George Cathedral (Birger Jarlsgatan 92, 11420 Stockholm) any Sunday over the next 3 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BIG DAY: Saturday, December 6, 2025. We\u2019ll bundle everything up and deliver them in person at the \u201cSandwich Factory,\u201d where we make sandwiches and coffee for the homeless of Stockholm.
Parents, grandparents, big siblings, raid your drawers! Every pair of woolly socks counts. Let\u2019s show our teens what love in action is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for your collaboration and support! GOYS (Greek Orthodox Youth of Sweden) is an initiative by @anordinarydemimum to gather our 12-18 year olds for discussion, community service opportunities and fun \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
