Volunteers for logistics at TEXTILHAFEN - lend a hand

The inclusive company "Komm&Sieh" runs four second-hand neighbourhood stores, the TEXTILHAFEN with material pool, the upcycling label WaterToWine, the Re-Use Centre in the House of Materialization, the logistics kitchen and helps with professional apartment clearances.

The TEXTILHAFEN of the Berlin City Mission is the central sorting point for our textile donations in Prenzlauer Berg. First comes the needs of our needy guests in the clothing stores & emergency shelters. Everything that is not needed there goes into a regional textile cycle wherever possible. Some of the textiles go to our second-hand neighborhood stores. Another part is made available to the textile material pool: Upcycling designers, theater and film outfitters and many more use the material resources of our city. We use the proceeds to support social projects of the Berlin City Mission. And we need your support!
