Humanitarian Service in Hamburg

A World Humanitarian Day event in Hamburg focused on the role that ordinary people can play in helping others and strengthening their communities.

At the Church of Scientology Hamburg, participants learned more about the work of the Scientology Volunteer Ministers, a humanitarian programme established by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard

The initiative focuses on practical skills that can be used when individuals or communities need support.

The Hamburg gathering also reflected the role that voluntary service can play in building stronger communities. Scientology Volunteer Ministers have participated in humanitarian initiatives in communities and emergency situations around the world.

This kind of work shows that humanitarian action does not always begin with a major emergency.

A fuller account of the Hamburg event, the Volunteer Ministers programme and the wider Hamburg significance of World Humanitarian Day can be found in the full article on humanitarian service in Hamburg.

Hamburg offered a practical example of how service and civic responsibility can contribute to community life.
