Volunteer

Rotterdam -  ‘It makes me happy to help others,’ Ali Toptas says, ‘I remember when my mother and brothers and sisters and me moved here, coming from Turkey, joining may father who came in 1967. He spoke no Dutch at all. We would have appreciated some help then.' Ali used to work in the harbour as a overloader. A typical newcomers’ job. It ruined his back. Now he works as a volunteer, paid by social security.
