About the volunteering opportunity
The station mission at Berlin Central Station as well as Berlin East Station is happy to receive volunteer support:
We help travelers getting on, off and changing trains and accompany travelers at the station. We are also a low-threshold contact point for people with social problems. We offer advice and refer people to specialist advice centers or other social institutions and also provide people with food.
In addition, we have a special advisory service, especially for people with mental impairments - the "courage makers at the station". As part of the project "Kids-on-Tour" we are also active as an escort service for children traveling alone.

Where?
youngcaritas Berlin
The youngcaritas Berlin belongs to the Caritasverband für das Erzbistum Berlin e.V. and promotes young people's commitment. Our goal is to introduce young people to politically and socially "explosive" topics and to teach them a more attentive and conscious use of environmental resources, both through theoretical input and through practical implementation. The goal of youngcaritas Berlin is to win as many young people as possible for voluntary work, be it for the youngcaritas projects "Kulturbuddys", *vergissmeinnicht* or through counselling and placement in various institutions and projects.
