Organizations for solidarity and mutual aid Marseille 15th 13015

It would be wrong to think that the Restos du Coeur only distribute food aid. Employees and volunteers act in various ways: daily marauds in Marseille, emergency reception in a centre in Aubagne (20 beds), integration workshops, assistance with returning to work, cultural and leisure activities (debates, cinemas, libraries), welfare assistance (hairdressing and beauty services). Les Restos du Coeur de Marseille is constantly looking for volunteers to welcome people and distribute food, but also for drivers and companions to deliver the 42 centres in the department and strengthen the mobile teams in the street.

Les alchimistes had a brilliant and simple idea: to collect food waste from professionals and local authorities and turn it into organic compost. Present throughout Provence, Les Alchimistes stand out from the crowd by helping local authorities to develop sorting and composting programs, and by running workshops to raise awareness of the importance of sorting and composting. The real advantage of this approach is the short circuit, since everything from waste collection to composting is very local.
