About the volunteering opportunity

Help where help is needed and as a companion at the side of those who need support. For 75 years, this has been what defines us and how we work. It was just as true 75 years ago as it is today: we are committed to helping people who have had to flee their homes.

The hostel for homeless people in Berlin-Marzahn offers around 160 places for people in social need, especially for families and vulnerable women who have been victims of domestic violence, as well as for people with limited mobility.

Your Tasks

You can help us to accompany children aged 5-11 years to the Christmas market at Alice - Salomon Platz and bring them back to the dormitory.

For this volunteering opportunity, intermediate German skills are required.
  • To join us, you must be at least 20 years old.
  • B2 German language skills are desirable.
  • Some previous (educational) experience in working with children is helpful, but not essential.
