We are looking for volunteers for the streetfestival 'Bilfri søndag', September 14th in Copenhagen
Join the street party on Nørrebrogade when the street will be closed to cars on September 14th and instead filled with people for a day with dance, games and music. The Central America Committee will be involved as an actor and have a stall at the street party, where we will create an interactive event about coffee production and conditions in Guatemala. Before the street party, the Copenhagen Half Marathon will be held, where there is also the opportunity to help as a volunteer. The shifts will be approximately 3-4 hours, where you stand independently at posts and guide the runners as a guide. Afterwards, you can support MAK's stall by helping to explain the concept to passersby, and set up and pack up the stall afterwards.
As a volunteer for the Strretfestival and CPH Half, you can help to:
be part of the helping-club, guiding the runners along the running route and ensuring that there is a clear path for the runners.
collect trash before and after the race so that it is clean and tidy during the race
help with practical tasks before and during the event on the day
be part of an international community and work with people from different cultures
As a thank you for your help, you will receive a nice crew jacket and refreshments while you work. And not least, you will have a cozy and fun experience and get to know new people, while at the same time experiencing up close how a large event like the Copenhagen Half Marathon works behind the scenes. In addition, you will help spend the day creating visibility about coffee production and conditions, and strengthening global solidarity with Central America.
