About the volunteering opportunity
An offer from the AWO Refugium Hausvaterweg:
The residents of our accommodation have only been in Berlin for a few days or weeks. In order to get to the doctor or public offices, they usually have to travel a long distance and change trains several times. For many people (especially single parents, older people, people with disabilities, etc.), this in itself is a major challenge. These people would like to be accompanied to their appointments, whether by public transport or by car.
