About the volunteering opportunity
In the mentoring project of our volunteering office MARIE, people from Berlin who want to support other people find each other. We are looking for committed people who accompany refugees or other groups of people with support needs and make it easier for them to arrive in a new environment. Personal contact at eye level helps people to get to know each other better and to learn from each other. Prejudices can thus be reduced and replaced by shared experiences.
We offer you: individual support and advice, a regular training program, joint recreational events, access to free offers of cultural events, issuance of certificates of commitment, if necessary (BVG) travel reimbursement.
Your Tasks
Accompany a visually impaired woman in her various leisure activities: She is 39 years old, lives in Neukölln and would like a female person to accompany her regularly (by public transport) to various activities such as group meetings, festivals, to hikes or her choir group. For the mentoring you should be between twenty and thirty years old, speak fluent German and be available 1x weekly on a regular basis.
What's needed
Commitment and reliability, motivation and patience, empathy, openness, ability to reflect
Time required
Monday through Friday mentoring can take place after 1pm.
