Scientology Volunteers and Muslim Residents Cooperate on Neighbourhood Cleanup

PADUA, Italy — A community cleanup in the Italian city of Padua brought together people from different faiths and national backgrounds on 4 October 2026.

Scientology Volunteer Ministers worked alongside members of local Muslim, Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities to remove approximately 50 kilograms of news euromillions waste from the Borgomagno neighbourhood.

The operation focused on public spaces near the railway station where discarded materials had accumulated.

The local effort was one example of cooperation between Scientology and Muslim volunteers in Padua.

Previous volunteer operations in September had already brought together participants from different religious and cultural backgrounds to improve public spaces in Padua.

The cooperation highlights how community service can create opportunities for dialogue and mutual understanding across cultural and religious differences.

Established by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, the international Volunteer Ministers programme encourages people to assist others and address difficulties in their communities.

For Ivan Arjona, the Church of Scientology's representative to European and international institutions, the initiative reflects the importance of civic responsibility and mutual respect.

"Respect for different beliefs becomes especially meaningful when it is accompanied by cooperation," Arjona said.

The joint activities provide a practical example of how different communities can contribute to the same local objectives.

The Church of Scientology and its affiliated groups are present across the European continent, where volunteers participate in social initiatives concerning education, prevention and community improvement.
