About the volunteering opportunity

Hey everyone,

We at youngcaritas Stuttgart have been working together with Trott-war for years to help people experiencing homelessness. You may be familiar with our “Warm Through the Night” campaign from the winter, when we hand out warm clothes and hot drinks and interact with people on the street on an equal footing.

Starting now, we’re excited to be active during the hot summer months as well! Because especially in the summer heat, people without a permanent home need our support just as urgently.

That’s why we’re hitting the streets together this summer to hand out water, sunscreen, caps, and anything else that offers protection and relief on hot days.

Join us, lend a hand, and show that we stick together even in the heat. Because no one should be forgotten in the summer heat!

Here’s what’s next:

First “Stay Cool All Day” event: Wednesday, August 19, 2026 (waiting list)
The second event will take place on Friday, August 26, 2026 . Registration open

Register directly at vostel.de or via email at young@caritas-stuttgart.de
Contact person: Juliette (she/her)

Can’t make it on the event day itself but still want to help? Then check out “Cool Through the Day” here and find out how you can help—for example, by sending a care package. 

We look forward to seeing you and receiving your support!

Your Tasks

As a volunteer, you’ll help support this initiative from planning through to execution. We’ll walk through the city together and casually offer our services to those in need.

What's needed

For this volunteering opportunity, intermediate German skills are required.
As a volunteer, you should of course be an open and communicative person who is interested in the project.

You should also be aware that we meet people who are living in absolute hardship and that this can be emotionally stressful. As a volunteer, you should therefore be resilient, empathetic and tolerant towards people in this situation. You also need to be flexible in terms of time, as the campaign runs from afternoon to evening and the actual end time is difficult to predict.

A minimum age of 17 is required.

Time required

Regularly
Approx. 3 hours per day.

Important notice

  • Time flexibility
  • Emotional resilience
  • Tolerant and respectful interaction at eye level
  • No photos during the action
