This short film started the movement I AM YOU. Today, we're a nonprofit organization that coordinates volunteer relief operations at Europe's borders, focusing on the Greek islands. We provide carefully selected volunteer teams with special skills, including translators, medical personnel and experienced relief workers. We also arrange study visits for global opinion shapers. These include entrepreneurs, artists, journalists and politicians that work hand-in-hand with our volunteers. Our goal is to do everything in our power to make sure the refugees journey through Greece and onward is one where they are treated with dignity and respect. We aim to be the voice of the refugees, not only by translation on site and knowing their language, but also through telling their stories. We believe this unique operational structure will generate mass awareness and create empathy and understanding in the western world.
I AM YOU is a 501c3 certified NGO. Support our onsite operations, make a donation at http://www.iamyou.se
