In response to the increasing demand for their aid, teams of Volunteer Ministers set up centres in city squares across Europe in 2002. They joined together under the banner "Something Can Be Done About It." Each centre was housed in a large yellow tent where people could view presentations on the tools of a Volunteer Minister (see "Volunteer Ministers — Compassion for others"), receive assistance with their problems and learn how to help others. The movement began in the United Kingdom and travelled throughout the rest of Europe, reaching 25 cities. In total, close to 3,000 Volunteer Ministers worked to help 103,000 people with the know-how contained in The Scientology Handbook.

With the success of the 2002 efforts, larger goals were set for 2003. Instead of the two tents that housed their first exhibits, the Volunteer Ministers would use seven travelling pavilions, each composed of three interconnected tents. The 2003 Volunteer Minister tour started in Denmark and visited the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Russia and Hungary. It travelled 20,000 miles, through 36 more cities, bringing help to more than 180,000 people. In all, over the 2002—2003 period, the Volunteer Ministers visited 61 cities and brought help to 283,000 people.

In response to the tremendous reception given the Volunteer Ministers and the demand for the solutions they offer, all Scientology Churches have now organised Volunteer Minister chapters to serve their communities. Their message — and demonstrations — of effective help will this year be exhibited in 46 cities across Europe and 139 internationally. Globally, Volunteer Ministers will be available for help in over 5,000 metropolitan centres — and for one simple reason: People today are looking for solutions. Volunteer Ministers can provide them."
