Become a volunteer

Do you have some time to give or specific skills you would like to share? Come and volunteer with DoucheFLUX and support people experiencing homelessness.

At DoucheFLUX, volunteers get involved according to their availability. A schedule is drawn up based on the availability provided by each person, and a sandwich is provided during your shift.

DoucheFLUX is a citizen-led initiative where everyone has a place. From the very beginning, volunteers have been essential to our services and activities. Join us on this journey — we need you!

Volunteering at the day centre

DoucheFLUX's day centre is open from Tuesday to Saturday and welcomes people with or without a home. We offer a wide range of services and, to ensure everything runs smoothly, we need 9 volunteers between 8:15 a.m. and 12:45 p.m.

As a volunteer at the day centre, you will help run the solidarity clothing room, where people can collect clothes and essential products after their showers. You will also help with the laundry and dryers, help create a welcoming atmosphere in the common room and chat with people while they wait for their turn to shower, etc. This is essential volunteering where you give your time to help build a more supportive and caring community!

Join our new street outreach initiative!

We are looking for volunteers for street outreach! Your mission, should you choose to accept it: to meet people experiencing homelessness in public spaces across Brussels, build social connections, provide information about DoucheFLUX and the wider network of services, and distribute essential hygiene supplies.

  • Work in pairs or groups of three, for 2 or 3 hours of street outreach
  • Regular commitment where possible, ideally weekly
  • Initial training, supervision and regular check-ins with the team
  • Free sandwich and access to friendly moments with the DoucheFLUX volunteer and staff team

Contact Sadibou, street outreach coordinator, who will be delighted to welcome you and bring you into the project!
