Here's what our volunteers say
-
I have already looked for opportunities for social commitment several times this year, but it is sometimes very difficult to find suitable offers or to make contact with the right places. vostel.de makes the search and registration much easier, with just a few clicks you have found something suitable, registered and have all the relevant information at hand. My first thought was ‘Volunteering has finally arrived in the digital age.’ Thank you for that!

My volunteer experience with vostel.de was really great. Thank you very much for your support and for the opportunity to help and get to know new realities of the city of Berlin.

I know how many steps there can be to getting someone involved in projects, but using vostel.de felt really easy and frictionless. I loved that in many cases I could sign up for a shift to try out a task, and then if I liked it simply sign up for some more. And if it wasn't right for me, I could try something else. That let me make the most of my time in Berlin.

Thanks to vostel.de, I've already found lots of great volunteering opportunities and got to know lots of great and different people. The commitments - for example at a cookery seminar for blind and visually impaired young adults - have always given me great pleasure and you grow with the new tasks every time. I can only recommend vostel.de to anyone who would like to volunteer.

Working at the emergency shelter for homeless people really enriched my stay in Berlin and I don't think I would still be in the city if I hadn't got to know the organisation. Many thanks to vostel.de for putting me in touch with them. I hope that I will be able to take part in many more vostel.de projects in the future and get to know the city and its inhabitants even better.
-
My commitment was really fun. Thank you! It was a great experience - I will definitely take part again. I think vostel.de is a great platform for finding organisations that would otherwise not be so easy to find!

I would like to thank you that through vostel.de I have the chance to get involved in social projects in a very easy way.
About vostel.de
We are vostel
We are a small, Berlin-based social enterprise with a big dream: We envision a world where everyone contributes to a better, more sustainable future according to their abilities and regardless of how much time they have, what language they speak or what skills they bring with them. This is why we offer a wide range of volunteering opportunities at various non-profit organisations at vostel.de. We provide concrete possibilities for individuals, especially for the younger generation, to become socially engaged and help create a better world.
Since our founding in 2015, we have been able to match 43231 volunteers with 1914 social organisations through vostel.de.
In addition to recruiting volunteers and advising non-profit organisations on all aspects of their volunteer management, we help companies plan and implement rewarding corporate volunteering activities.
We're supporting non-profits Germany-wide, including Berlin, Bonn, Cologne, Darmstadt, Dusseldorf, the region of Frankfurt Main, Hamburg, Leipzig, Munich, Nuremberg, Stuttgart and Wiesbaden. In addition, we cooperate with organisations from all over Germany that are looking specifically for volunteers that support them online/remotely.
