Volunteers wanted: Support the "Family Café" at the AWO Family Center (Lichtenberg)

Are you open-minded, communicative and enjoy working with people? Then you've come to the right place!

We, the AWO Family Center am Fennpfuhl (Lichtenberg), are urgently looking for reliable volunteers to support us in the implementation and organization of our family café (Tuesday + Thursday, 4:00 to 6:00 pm). The family café is a leisure activity for parents and children from the neighborhood and is very well received. Families come together here to chat, play and exercise. They can take advantage of a small catering offer (waffles, drinks, snacks) for a donation. In the summer months, the family center's garden is also open for families to join in. We are looking for people who can communicate confidently in German and can also lend a hand when needed.

The family center is located in the "Haus der Begegnung", which also houses the AWO children's and youth club "Judith Auer" and the "Stadtteilmütter" and "Elternbegleitung" projects. It sees itself as a place of encounter, tolerance, appreciation and education. Our main target group is families, especially those with children aged 0 to 6. But older siblings, (grand)parents and other people from the neighborhood are also welcome! Here you can get in touch with others, relax, laugh and be creative. You can learn new things or teach others. We have a varied monthly program with recurring offers.

Become part of our team and help shape the family center! We look forward to meeting you.

The possible tasks at the family café are varied: helping with the preparations (kitchen & set-up), helping at the counter during the café (serving food and drinks/sales), dismantling, interacting with the families.
