About the volunteering opportunity
The Kiezcafé in the Am Kreuzberg nursing home is to become an open and inclusive meeting place for people in need of care and those suffering from addiction, their relatives, visitors and neighbors in the Bergmannkiez - together with you!
We are looking for committed people who want to actively shape neighbourly interaction. Together with the team on site, you will develop events that appeal to both the residents of the building and the neighborhood: Music evenings, readings or creative activities - there are virtually no limits to your creativity!
The aim is to offer an event every two weeks or so to facilitate encounters and exchanges.
