About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

AWO Stuttgart operates several Stadtteilhäuser (intergenerational neighbourhood houses), which serve as meeting points for social interaction, cultural activities, and everyday support. Our facilities offer a wide range of programs, helping seniors lead independent and active lives. We look forward to welcoming you as a volunteer in our Ostendplatz neighborhood house if you are interested in helping us with the following tasks: • You will assist in planning, organizing, and carrying out recreational, educational, and cultural activities for the visitors (ex. game nights, craft sessions, lectures...) • You will support our visitors by providing transportation services • You will assist our visitors with everyday tasks, such as filling out forms, accompanying them • You will run errands for the facility or our visitors • You will work closely with the team and take on general organizational tasks (event preparation, adminisistartion)

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will live in either a shared apartment or a residential home with other young adults who are new to Germany. This accommodation is in close proximity to tram, bus, and S-Bahn stations, making downtown Stuttgart accessible within minutes. Additionally, we provide a "Deutschlandticket" for public transportation in all of Germany. You will receive monthly pocket money and food allowance according to ESC guidlines.

🎒 Leisure activities

During your volunteering you will attend two trainings organized by the German National Agency (on-arrival and mid-term training). You will become part of an experienced team and a supervisor will be available to answer your questions at any time. You will have the opportunity to meet other volunteers. Your hosting organisation will also provide additional German classes depending on your level.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
What do we provide ?
