About the volunteering opportunity

To support the children and youth coordinator, the reception center Askanierring is looking for volunteers to accompany the activities for young people. We have two rooms dedicated to young people in the facility - sometimes there are activity offers for young people and at other times these rooms serve as common rooms for young people to spend their free time together.

It would be great if the volunteers could spend time with them, offer them a sympathetic ear or organize something of their own and keep order from time to time (no supervisory duties!).

Your Tasks

- Spend time with the young refugees;
- listen to the young people when they need it;
- possibly offer their own activities (on request);
- keep order.

What's needed

For this volunteering opportunity, intermediate German skills are required.
Experience in youth work (no matter whether professional, voluntary or private) is an advantage, but not a prerequisite. Enjoying contact with young people and organizing leisure activities for them.

The Askanierring reception center and the Aksanierring shared accommodation belong to the Landesbetrieb für Gebäudebewirtschaftung - Teil B (LfG-B for short). It is a state-owned company of the state of Berlin and was founded in spring 2017. LfG-B operates accommodation for refugees on behalf of the Berlin State Office for Refugee Affairs (LAF).

AE Askanierring is an initial reception facility. This means that our residents are new to Germany and are in the asylum process. AE Askanierring offers 330 places for refugees from various countries.

GU Askanierring is a shared accommodation facility for recognized refugees who have already settled in Berlin but still require a certain amount of support. GU Askanierring offers 570 places, also for refugees from various countries.

Both accommodations are located in Berlin-Spandau - they are next to each other.
