In the last few months, we have been looking at our ecological footprint and how we can keep it as low as possible in the future and make our activities climate neutral.
Here you can find more information about the calculation of our carbon footprint and the compensation.
In our blog post we give you first insights into the wishes, needs and motivations of a young and digital generation of volunteers and the possibility to download the study for further information
The three-part online workshop series on 2nd, 9th and 16th June will take a closer look at "Volunteers 2.0", their motivations and wishes for commitment or volunteering with the help of studies, surveys and models. Based on the gained insights, the participants develop concrete strategies to attract, supervise and retain the new generation of volunteers for a long-term commitment in their organisation. The workshop series focuses on the presentation of digital tools that can support social organisations in the realisation of their strategies and addresses the increased relevance of digital engagement.
In the course of the three two-hour workshops, the participants will gain a comprehensive overview of the new generation of volunteers and take home first ideas, methods and implementation proposals for the (also digital) recruitment and retention of young volunteers.
Please note: The online course series will be held exclusively in German.
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 15530 volunteers with 791 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.
At present, we're supporting non-profits in Berlin, Cologne, Darmstadt, the region of Frankfurt Main, Hamburg, 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.
