Join the Berlin Volunteer Days 2020

The "Gemeinsame Sache – Berliner Freiwilligentage 2020" (transl. "Common cause - Berlin Volunteer Days 2020") are an excellent opportunity for all (not yet) committed people to get to know the diversity of commitment in Berlin and to get a taste of one or the other volunteering opportunity. 

There are many join-in activities in which you can participate on site, digitally or simply from home. You can find a large overview of all the activities here (page only available in German).

New online counseling session for NPOs using vostel.de | September 2nd or 22nd

Within the scope of our new online consultation hour (approx. 30 minutes, will be via zoom) we would like to offer all our partner organisations the opportunity to get to know us and our offer for you and your organisation better.

Short and crisp we show you

  • the technical features of our platform
  • Possibilities for successful volunteer and material donation searches
  • Ways how you can nudge company cooperations via vostel.de if necessary (possibilities for social days and fundraising)

At the same time there is the possibility to send us your questions and suggestions directly and to exchange ideas with us and other vostel partner organisations.

The online consultations take place every six weeks and are suitable for all newbies and long-term partners who want to make their search for volunteers and/or donations in kind via vostel.de (still) successful.

The next consultation hours will be on September 2nd (15:00-15:30) and on September 22nd (11:00-11:30).

We are very much looking forward to getting to know you and your organization!

Please note: The session will be hold in German!

Launch of the #vostelacademy

Since 2015 already more than 13000 people have volunteered in non-profit projects via vostel.de. And we have received at least as many questions about commitment and voluntary work. Now we want to share the collected & bundled knowledge with even more volunteers out there. 

Under the hashtag #vostelacademy and on our blog you will find from now on and in the coming weeks many helpful tips for your volunteering activities.
