In-kind donation requests

We are looking for various crocheting supplies for a self-guided crocheting workshop that takes place regularly at our shelter. We are currently in need of hooks of various sizes, thick and thin yarns (including extra-thick, sturdy yarns for bags, etc.), stuffing, and other items.

The workshop is led by a resident and is open to all residents of the shelter. In addition to stuffed animals, decorations, and simple patterns, participants also make baskets and bags.

Please be sure to address any donations sent by mail to LfG-B (Bereznai)!

Bringing Warmth to APAYMA’s Four-Legged Friends 

Winter can get bitterly cold in Spain, too—especially at night. For the dogs at the APAYMA shelter, who live in simple kennels, this means they urgently need protection from the cold and wet ❄️🐕.

That’s why we’re asking for in-kind donations for the coming winter months:

🧣 Warm blankets —used ones are very welcome, but please make sure they’re clean and in good condition
🧥 Dog coats in various sizes —we’re also happy to accept used ones in good condition

Every warm blanket and every well-fitting coat helps make the cold days and nights a little more bearable for one of our furry friends. 

Maybe you still have a blanket in your closet that you no longer need, or a dog coat that your own four-legged friend has outgrown? At the APAYMA animal shelter, both can still do a world of good!

📦 We’ll have the collected donations shipped to the shelter by a freight company.

🐾 Please help us ensure that no one at APAYMA has to freeze this winter.
Thank you so much for your support!

Zentrum ÜBERLEBEN provides care for people, some of whom have experienced severe trauma. In addition to psychotherapeutic help, they can also participate in complementary support programs, such as our creative therapy group, which sometimes includes sewing. There, they create clothing, bags, and pillowcases, and participants experience the joy of creating something beautiful and useful with their own hands. In addition to finding relief from the burdens of everyday worries, they find peace and experience a sense of self-efficacy. However, due to drastic cuts in funding, we currently lack the money to purchase materials for various projects. That’s why we’d be very grateful for sewing supplies, especially fabric. Fabric scraps are also very welcome!

If you’re unsure whether we can use your donation, please feel free to contact us in advance. We’d be happy if you could drop off the materials at our location or send them by mail.

Through the “Radelbande” project, ADFC Wolfsburg e.V. aims to teach children as young as preschool and elementary school age the basics of safe cycling while also fostering an early appreciation for the bicycle as a means of everyday transportation. At the heart of the program is a hands-on bike course designed to specifically develop motor skills such as balance and coordination, while above all fostering a love of physical activity. In this playful way, children gain their first experiences riding a bike and come to see it from an early age as a natural part of a climate-friendly daily life.
To transport the course elements, we need a well-maintained car trailer with a tarp. The car trailer should have approximately the following dimensions: 2 meters long (3 meters with the drawbar), 1 meter wide.
We are also looking for a suitable garage to store the trailer.

The course elements must be stored and transported to the event location using a car trailer. We are looking for a garage in Wolfsburg to store the trailer.

We need laptops of any type, as long as they are in working condition. 
Windows does not necessarily have to be installed; our team can handle that.

To provide small surprises, gift packages, and direct support for the children we serve, we’re looking for new toys, board games, books, art and craft supplies, as well as small, age-appropriate gifts for children and teens.

Since we pass these donations directly on to the children and their families, we ask that you donate only new or items still in their original packaging.

We are especially grateful for items that can bring a little joy, keep children occupied, or provide a distraction during difficult times.

Thank you so much for your support! ❤️

We’re looking for good-quality, used curtains for the residents’ rooms at our facility. Many rooms currently don’t have any. The cold days are coming soon, and it would be great if we could receive some donations. Dimensions: up to 2.45 m wide; length is flexible.
We appreciate every donation.

To maintain and preserve our orchard meadow and other habitats, we need a car trailer to transport tools, grass clippings, compost, and much more.
The trailer can be used, but it should have a gross vehicle weight rating of 750 kg and, of course, be in working order and registered.

We're looking for a used bar mower to maintain our orchard meadows.
It doesn’t matter if it’s two-stroke or four-stroke—at least for now.
Of course, it should be in working condition.

This year, we’ll once again be donating homemade cookies to organizations so they can be distributed to homeless people. Last year, we learned that many homeless people have specific requests, and we’d like to include a few of those in our donations. Vitamin effervescent tablets (individual tablets or in packets), instant terrines, and soups are in high demand. We appreciate everything—feel free to get creative!

We need seating for the refugee shelter where we go once a week to play and do crafts. Right now, we’re making do and painting wherever we can. But by fall at the latest, we’d like to be able to do our crafts and painting while sitting on suitable furniture. That’s why we’re looking for seating sets for children or tables and chairs at child height.

We need assistive devices such as walkers, wheelchairs, orthotics, and crutches. 

To support people with these needs, we need hygiene products. Please donate only new and unused items. 

We need sweatpants (for all genders) in sizes S–XXL. 
It’s best if the sweatpants aren’t in bright colors. 

They should be in good, wearable condition (no holes, clean). 

You can drop off donations on Thursdays from 5:00–8:00 p.m. 

Not everyone can afford cultural experiences. Social Inclusion Berlin is committed to helping homeless people, those struggling with addiction, people living in poverty, and those with mental health conditions participate more fully in society—including by attending cultural events.

Do you have unsold tickets? Whether it’s 2 or 10 free tickets—we appreciate every donation. We’ll distribute them to people who otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford to attend.

As a thank-you, we’d be happy to give your project visibility on our social media channels and on our blog. We’re also open to new partnerships and collaborative projects.

We are happy to pack small gifts for refugee children and women in need of protection at Christmas, but also on occasions such as Mother's Day and Easter. The partner organizations are initial reception centers for refugees, as well as the street work teams that reach homeless women, women in forced prostitution and in women's shelters. We like to wrap the gifts with our volunteers. 

We always look for the same product if it is available at least 20-100 times.
We are happy about every donation in this matter, it is best to contact us briefly to see if the donation fits the purpose.

Twice a year, we pack hygiene bags for around 500 vulnerable women in women's shelters, homeless women and women in forced prostitution. The small bags are very well received by the organizations, mainly because they make it easier for the street work teams to gain access to the women or to approach them with a small gift. We are also happy to take smaller quantities of the standard contents of the bag, including Tissuepacks, individually wrapped pads, tampons, lip balm.

You are also welcome to add other cosmetic items, but please do not add them individually, but in such a way that the product is sufficient for at least one institution (approx. 100 items).

We look forward to hearing from you!

The M.K. Humanus International Organization e.V. collects food donations for families in need, senior citizens and people with disabilities in our region.

We are looking for non-perishable foodstuffs such as rice, pasta, flour, sugar, oil, canned goods, pulses, coffee, tea and other basic foodstuffs.

The donations are collected by our organization, sorted and passed on to people in difficult life situations.

Any support helps to alleviate social hardship and provide concrete help to the people affected. Thank you very much for your support.

We are looking for used foosball tables for the common room at our shelter.

Unfortunately, our residents—especially the children and teenagers at our shelter—have limited access to outdoor and sports areas, so we would like to provide them with these options. We have already secured the help of particularly dedicated residents to look after the tables.

Please be sure to address them to “LfG-B”!

Our childcare program is currently looking for toys (especially badminton rackets, table tennis paddles, and balls of all kinds, as well as board games and party games). We also still need play mats, arts and crafts supplies, and children’s furniture.

Since the childcare program needs to be completely rebuilt from scratch, we are currently looking for anything that might be useful in supporting and caring for the children living with us.

Please be sure to address donations to “LfG-B”!

To be able to sail our ZK10 Barther Greif as an inclusive team, we need a complete rig consisting of 2 masts and several sails in accordance with the KV-ZK10. Our Kutter-Treff andersARTick offers real participation for all generations. From preschoolers to experienced senior citizens, we offer people the opportunity to get actively involved, depending on their own abilities. An insight into our work can be found on our website at https://www.andersartick-ev.de/news/1/1236601/nachrichten/erlebnisbericht-kutter-treff-am-16.05.2026--erste-fahrt-der-barther-greif.html
Sponsors have the opportunity to provide part of the sailing area with some advertising.

5 pairs of oars for participation as an inclusive team in rowing regattas with ZK10 cutter Barther Greif, made of wood in accordance with ZK10 class regulations
Rowing in the ZK10 only works as a team. 10 rowers and a helmsman need to work well together to achieve the goal. In a team, the participants learn to be considerate of each other and must agree on a common goal. Democracy and inclusion can be put into practice. People with disabilities can contribute according to their abilities and thus experience participation. Together, we look for ways to minimize or completely eliminate disabilities caused by external circumstances. Impressions of the start of our season on the water can be found on our website. The participants were a colorful mix from primary school age to pensioners, people with and without disabilities.

In our hospital, a volunteer escort service accompanies people to their appointments in the building. If they have difficulty walking or are weak, it would be a great help to the ladies if they could put the patients in a wheelchair and push them around the building/ make it easier and less strenuous for them to wait at elevators etc.. Unfortunately, these wheelchairs keep disappearing/being taken away. We would therefore urgently need a replacement and this time we would paint and mark it conspicuously so that it would hopefully be unattractive to take it away.
