Volunteering with Retake means taking care of common goods, public spaces and cities across Italy through concrete, participatory actions.

Retake’s volunteering activities arise from citizens’ desire to improve the places where they live, starting from their own local area.

Retake volunteers take part in initiatives focused on the care and improvement of public spaces in cities, such as parks, streets, squares and urban areas.
Activities include clean-up actions, regeneration and beautification projects, educational initiatives and environmental awareness activities, often carried out at the local level in collaboration with schools, associations and institutions.

Each project is developed through listening to local communities and territories, with the aim of creating a positive and lasting impact through concrete, shared actions.

Retake is active in many cities across Italy thanks to local groups of volunteers working on the ground every day.
Volunteering takes shape through initiatives and projects developed within individual cities, while maintaining a shared vision and common values across the national network.

With Retake, volunteering becomes a concrete action to make the cities we live in more beautiful, liveable and inclusive.

Volunteering with Retake is open to everyone.
Young people, adults, families and citizens of all ages can take part, in cities across Italy, even if it is their first volunteering experience.

No specific skills are required: what matters is the willingness to get involved and to contribute, together with local groups, to the care of shared public spaces.
