Scientologists Across Europe Strengthen Humanitarian Work as Path to Spiritual Freedom
Across Europe, Scientologists expand humanitarian actions — from Volunteer Ministers to drug prevention — showing how helping others is key to achieving spiritual freedom.
Brussels, Belgium — November 2025 — From the streets of Prague to community halls in Madrid, volunteers of the Church of Scientology are continuing a long-standing tradition: serving society through humanitarian actions that aim to restore dignity, compassion, and moral values. Behind these efforts lies a conviction central to Scientology itself — that true spiritual freedom cannot be achieved without contributing to the well-being of one’s fellow human beings.
During recent months, Scientologists and their affiliated groups have led hundreds of civic and educational activities throughout Europe. In the Czech Republic alone, Volunteer Ministers organized more than forty community initiatives in October 2025, ranging from neighborhood clean-ups and disaster-response training to youth workshops on ethics and cooperation. Similar efforts were mirrored in Italy, Hungary, Spain, and France, all conducted under the Church’s broader humanitarian umbrella.
Humanitarian Work as a Spiritual Practice
Unlike many religious or social movements that separate faith from service, Scientology places helping others at the core of personal progress. Its founder, L. Ron Hubbard, wrote that “a being is only as valuable as he can serve others,” a principle that underpins the Church’s social programs. From the global “Volunteer Ministers” network to educational campaigns on drug prevention, literacy, and human rights, each action reflects the idea that assisting others is an indispensable step toward one’s own enlightenment.
Across Europe, this philosophy has taken practical form through initiatives such as “The Way to Happiness” — a secular moral code written by Hubbard in 1981 that has reached millions in more than 100 languages — and “Youth for Human Rights”, which empowers students to understand and promote the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. These programs, while not requiring religious affiliation, exemplify the Scientology view that improving society’s moral and ethical condition is essential for individuals to flourish spiritually.
A European Culture of Civic Responsibility
In cities like Brussels, Rome, and Vienna, Scientology Missions and Churches have become recognized contributors to civic life, often collaborating with local associations to address social ills such as substance abuse, urban neglect, and intolerance. Their work aligns with the European Union’s emphasis on community engagement and human rights education.
“Helping others is not merely a charitable act — it is a cornerstone of a free and cohesive society,” said Ivan Arjona-Pelado, Representative of the Church of Scientology to the European Union, OSCE, Council of Europe and the United Nations. “When individuals learn to take responsibility for their communities, they also move closer to understanding their own spiritual nature. This is the essence of what Scientologists mean by freedom — not only personal liberation, but shared responsibility for the world around us.”
Volunteer Ministers: A Movement of Practical Help
One of the most visible expressions of this ethos is the Volunteer Ministers (VMs) program, created in the 1970s in response to what Hubbard described as the “moral decay” of modern life. Easily recognized by their yellow shirts, VMs operate in over 200 nations, providing aid in times of crisis — from natural disasters to daily personal struggles.
In Europe, Volunteer Ministers have been active in flood response in Slovenia, refugee-aid coordination in Hungary, earthquake recovery in Croatia and Italy, and ongoing neighborhood initiatives across the continent. Their training — open to anyone regardless of belief — focuses on practical tools to resolve conflict, improve communication, and restore self-confidence.
These actions are not driven by proselytism but by the conviction that people, when empowered with understanding and compassion, can overcome despair and regain control of their lives. This is why the program’s motto, “Something can be done about it,” has resonated across languages and cultures.
Education and Prevention as Keys to Social Change
In addition to direct assistance, Scientologists have placed strong emphasis on education as prevention. The “Truth About Drugs” campaign — conducted through the Foundation for a Drug-Free World — has distributed millions of booklets and organized awareness events in cooperation with teachers, police departments, and youth organizations. Similarly, Youth for Human Rights chapters throughout Europe have run workshops in schools, encouraging students to recognize human dignity as a universal right.
Each of these programs is supported by Scientologists but implemented in partnership with secular institutions, demonstrating how spiritual conviction can translate into tangible civic contribution. This cooperative spirit has earned acknowledgment from local authorities, educators, and NGOs for its consistent long-term engagement.
The Path to Spiritual Freedom
For Scientologists, service to others is not separate from their spiritual journey — it is the means by which spiritual awareness expands. The religion teaches that individuals are immortal spiritual beings, capable of achieving higher states of consciousness through both personal study and altruistic conduct. Helping one’s community thus becomes an integral part of advancing toward what Scientology calls “total freedom.”
“Europe has a deep humanist tradition that values solidarity and mutual aid,” added Arjona. “Scientologists contribute to this tradition by applying spiritual principles to everyday life — bringing help, hope, and understanding wherever they can. In doing so, they embody a belief that freedom, in its truest sense, belongs to all humanity.”
About the Church of Scientology
The Church of Scientology is a contemporary religion founded by L. Ron Hubbard in 1952, whose beliefs and practices derive from the study of the mind, spirit, and life itself. Scientology Churches, Missions, and groups are active throughout Europe, recognized as a charitable and bona fide religion in several jurisdictions. Its humanitarian programs — focusing on education, human rights, moral values, and disaster response — are inspired by Hubbard’s vision of a civilization free from war, crime, and suffering, where individuals are able to reach their highest spiritual potential.

NGTeco Reimagines Workforce Management for SMBs: Professional Biometrics Without the Enterprise Price Tag
United States, 18th Mar 2026, – While large corporations have long enjoyed the benefits of high-end biometric security, many small business owners are still stuck choosing between outdated paper logs or expensive, contract-heavy software. NGTeco is changing that narrative. Today, the company reaffirms its commitment to providing 100,000+ small businesses worldwide with the tools they need to manage their teams—minus the complexity and hidden costs.
Bridging the Gap for the Modern Shop Owner
For a local retail store or a busy clinic, every minute counts. NGTeco’s “Sophisticated Simplicity” philosophy focuses on creating an ecosystem where technology supports the business owner, rather than becoming another task to manage. By replacing manual punch card systems with Cloud Time Clock TC1 terminals, NGTeco helps managers reclaim their time and eliminate the constant headaches associated with manual payroll processing.
Reliable Technology Built for Real-World Workplaces
At the heart of NGTeco’s success is its industry-vetted Visible Light Facial Recognition series. These aren’t just gadgets; they are workhorses built for busy, high-traffic environments. Using advanced algorithms, the systems recognize employees in under a second—with flagship models clocking in at an impressive 0.3s. This technology is optimized to perform in diverse lighting and even while staff are wearing masks, ensuring a fast, hands-free “walk-through” experience that keeps the morning rush moving smoothly.
Enterprise-Grade Security Without the Monthly Bill
Data privacy is a top priority in 2026, and it shouldn’t be a luxury. NGTeco hosts its infrastructure on Amazon Web Services (AWS), protecting employee records with the same encryption standards (TLS 1.2 and AES 256-bit) used by global financial institutions.
However, what truly sets NGTeco apart in a crowded market is its stance on transparency. “We believe you should own your hardware and your data,” says a spokesperson for NGTeco. Unlike competitors who lock essential features behind a paywall, NGTeco maintains a no-mandatory-subscription model. Business owners get lifetime access to core features, including automatic hour calculation and mobile reporting via the NGTeco Office App, right out of the box.
A Specialized Vision for the Future
As NGTeco grows its footprint in North America, its focus remains narrow and deep: mastering the “Attendance” niche. By choosing to do one thing exceptionally well, NGTeco is helping a new generation of entrepreneurs build more resilient, tech-forward businesses.

About NGTeco
Founded in the United States, NGTeco leverages nearly two decades of biometric technology experience to serve small and medium-sized businesses. Since 2018, the company has specialized in smart office solutions, combining its TC Series time clocks with the NGTeco Cloud platform to streamline workforce management.
