About the volunteering opportunity
Our station mission at Ostbahnhof is a place that offers support and a sympathetic ear to people in difficult situations. Every day, we meet people who urgently need our help - whether they are dealing with acute emergencies, looking for guidance or simply need a moment to catch their breath and receive a breakfast parcel. We are there for everyone, regardless of origin, age or life situation, and offer a safe space that is characterized by humanity and respect.
Our team, consisting of full-time and volunteer staff, does valuable work every day to support people in difficult times. The focus is not only on providing practical help, but also on conveying hope and creating a place where everyone can feel welcome.
With your support, we can continue this place of encounter and help. We would be delighted if you decided to become part of our community!
Your Tasks
As a volunteer at the station mission at Ostbahnhof, you provide practical support to people in difficult life situations. You will help with small travel assistance tasks, such as carrying luggage or accompanying people to trains, and will be involved in handing out packed lunches, drinks or clothing. Making coffee and tea or keeping things tidy and clean are also part of your possible tasks with us.
With your commitment, you help to ensure that our guests get the help they urgently need - and that they feel welcome in this place.
What's needed
For this volunteering opportunity, intermediate German skills are required.
- Empathy and pleasure in dealing with people in difficult life situations
- Understanding, patience and an unprejudiced demeanor
- Reliability and a friendly demeanor
- Knowledge of foreign languages, especially Eastern European languages, to facilitate communication with our increasingly international group of guests
What to bring
Everything you need is on site.
Time required
Regularly
Important notice
- Flexible volunteering options: We are happy to receive regular support as well as one-off or occasional assignments - because there is always something to do here! Continuous assignments naturally help to create a familiar environment for our guests and are therefore particularly desirable, but individual assignments are also a valuable help.
