About the volunteering opportunity

We are looking for mediators of visiting partnerships for older people in the districts of Reinickendorf, Pankow, Mitte, Wedding, Prenzlauer Berg, Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Lichtenberg, Tempelhof-Schöneberg and Neukölln.

In order to be able to reach and bring together even more lonely elderly people and volunteers in our city, we are looking for volunteers who are interested in helping to get to know new volunteers and elderly people after an intensive training phase.

Your Tasks

This includes organizing the information evening for those interested in volunteering, getting to know lonely older people and arranging visiting partnerships between old and young. This project is a new form of engagement in which one can actively shape the project.

What's needed

Volunteers must be native German speakers.

You should be interested in working with elderly people, be open-minded and enjoy making new contacts, be reliable and flexible in terms of time and place (mainly evenings and weekends). Since we work in a team, the ability to work in a team is also an advantage... ;)

Time required

Regularly
Discussed individually

Flexible, according to own possibilities, but at least for 1 year

Important notice

Other than that, you'll need time for three to four monthly appointments and a leadership certificate (we'll be happy to explain what that's all about - but you won't need that until after we've talked and you decide to join us).

If you're interested in this commitment, feel free to get in touch.

Where?

This project is location independent.

Freunde alter Menschen e. V.

We are part of an international volunteer organisation called "les petits frères des Pauvres", founded in France and dedicated to helping elderly people who are affected or threatened by loneliness and isolation. Our organisation has been active in Europe since 1946 and is now also active in North America. It also has consultative status with the United Nations (UN).
