About the volunteering opportunity

On Thursday, November 26, we are looking for 3 energetic volunteers to help us prepare for the cold weather relief! The task is to load and unpack beds, boxes and hygiene articles for around 150 homeless people. Your commitment will have a direct impact on the lives of many people who depend on our help during the cold season.

When can you do it?
You can sign up for one of the following shifts:

- 1st shift: 8:00 - 10:00 a.m.
location: Panorama Nord - hostel for homeless people, Unionhilfswerk, Osloer Straße 80, 13359 Berlin

- 2nd shift: 11:30 - 14:30
location: Goslarer Platz 8, 10589 Berlin

It is also possible to help for both shifts!

The commitment is ideal for anyone who likes to lend a hand and make a practical contribution. No knowledge of German is required, anyone can join in!

Why should you be there?
Once again this year, UNIONHILFSWERK will provide homeless people with warm accommodation and important support during the cold months as part of Berlin's Kältehilfe program. From December 2, 2024 to April 30, 2025, we will ensure that around 150 homeless people can stay overnight and be cared for without bureaucracy.

If you would like to help in a valuable and meaningful project, please get in touch! The contact person on site on 26.11. is Pablo Sachsenweger, who will actively support you.

Join in and be part of this important commitment!
