In December, alongside associations and organizations across France, JeVeuxAider.gouv.fr, the public platform for volunteering, will be highlighting volunteer actions that promote social cohesion.

How can I get involved as a volunteer?
Nothing could be simpler: go to JeVeuxAider.gouv.fr, choose the mission that's right for you, as close to home as possible or from a distance, for as long as you like, and take concrete action to shine a light on the most invisible and to share the spirit and warmth of Christmas with those who aren't fortunate enough to be surrounded!
That's the strength of JeVeuxAider.gouv.fr: to enable massive mobilization across the country, where and when it's needed.
In addition to encouraging the mobilization of volunteers across the country, the December Together campaign will feature :
