Volunteer teams: People & Hospitality

 

By creating pleasant social gatherings, by providing good accommodation and reliable transport, everyone has to leave with a great feeling. The volunteers of People & Hospitality are the main ambassadors of WMC: they take care of the solidarity that WMC stands for and make sure that our guests have nothing to left to desire. An essential task within the organization.
