Serve the City International – Showing Kindness in Practical Ways

Our NEW Podcast Series!

Serving Stories

Serving Stories is a podcast from Serve the City. We travel around the world to gather stories of volunteers doing small things together that make a big difference. Each month, we feature people who cross lines of poverty, privilege and prejudice to raise the kindness quotient in their cities. In the first season we focus on six different cities—Lisbon, Chesapeake, Berlin, Tallinn, Brussels and Pristina—serving stories of transformation, both big and small.

Serve the City is a global movement of volunteers  showing kindness in practical ways to people in need. We partner with homeless shelters, refugee centers, orphanages, and other associations, offering help and support.

It was challenging but it was amazing to serve people and learn from them. It is an experience that shapes you and one that you will never forget. You carry these people in your hearts.

Edwina Brussels
Serve The City facilitated that basic human need of mine: to help others. Scratching that itch feels good.

Omar Dublin
Anyone who thinks one person cannot make a difference will see that one person makes all the difference when you are with Serve the City. It is changing the world one person at a time! Don't miss the opportunity to experience it.

Kristen Amsterdam
To have the opportunity to serve the city I live in and its people is simply wonderful!

Lorraine Dublin
My view of the people in Amsterdam changes as I do volunteer work and connect with other people.

Brigitte Amsterdam
It's amazing how healing human touch can be, sitting eye to eye, communicating in halting French and broken English.

Diana Brussels
The more I engaged on an individual level, the more I grew to love hearing their stories and jokes, and the more I realized that people are no less human and in need of interaction simply because of their age.

Ryan Brussels
Our organisation is starting a campaign on poverty, therefore we thought it important that our teambuilding activity is related to this issue and gives us very practical insight in the needs of the local community our organisation is based in. And what better place to do that than at SIA. We served soup, did a little cleaning up, and met people we would never have met otherwise. Serve the City could not have chosen a more suitable project for us, thank you!
