About the volunteering opportunity
What is the project about?
In the "AmtBuddy" project, you can help refugees and migrants to further their professional training.
An important step is obtaining an "education voucher" from the authorities (Jobcenter/Federal Employment Agency).
Unfortunately, visits to the authorities are often unsuccessful for many of our participants due to language barriers, discrimination and cultural misunderstandings. We can easily change this together by accompanying people when they go to the authorities!
Your Tasks
How can you help?
As an AmtBuddy, you accompany a person to an appointment with the authorities and provide support with communication. In this way, you can help them to obtain an "education voucher".
It's easy and flexible:
- Register with us and we will add you to our pool of supporters alongside other dedicated helpers.
- We will contact you when the next appointment with the authorities is due. If you have the time and inclination, we'll go to the office together.
- Of course, you will receive all the important information before the appointment.
- At the office, you will provide communication and moral support. Afterwards you give us a short feedback and that's it!
- You can do the whole thing as often as you like. Once, twice - every contribution counts. Of course you can unsubscribe at any time.
