About the volunteering opportunity
Once a month - depending on the weather - the clothes swap takes place in the house or courtyard of the district center. The principle: you bring what you no longer wear and leave with new favorite clothes.
The offer is very popular, but also needs reliable people to help organize it.

On weekends, during the day
The swap takes place once a month in the house or courtyard of the district center at a fixed time. For 2026, we have already decided on the second Sunday of the month. Once a month or at least every two months (depending on the amount of clothing left over) the clothes are taken away - if someone wants to do this, the time can be determined by themselves, it just has to be agreed with us and at the opening time of the donation acceptance point.
