About the volunteering opportunity

A refugee shelter is looking for active volunteer support to make it easier for the people living there to settle in Berlin. Volunteers can get involved in various areas.
For example, volunteers are needed to support the residents on a one-to-one basis, but visiting services for older residents living alone would also be possible. People are also needed for translation services in the Somali language, but all forms of volunteering are welcome!

You will be supported in your commitment by the full-time and volunteer team, who will be on hand to answer any questions you may have! Feel free to get in touch to discuss the possibilities.

Your Tasks

Visiting services, escorts (by arrangement), recreational activities, etc.

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.
