What engagiertes.berlin is not

We do not offer personal counselling or support.
We are not a substitute for volunteer agencies , but a supplement.
We do not arrange volunteering placements.

But we do arrange volunteer placements:
The volunteer agencies in the Berlin districts and the LAGFA Berlin volunteering platform will help you to find a suitable volunteer position.

Can I find a voluntary position here?

No - engagiertes.berlin does not arrange volunteer positions.
But we will show you where you can find suitable opportunities - for example at the volunteer agencies in your district or via the Berlin volunteering platform of LAGFA .

So you won 't get a direct placement here, but you will receive helpful information and links to support you on your way to volunteering.

How can you take part?

Do you know of a good funding opportunity, an exciting project or a place to get involved?

We also welcome feedback - because engagiertes.berlin thrives on participation.

Are we ever complete?

No - and that's okay. Berlin is changing, and volunteering is diverse.
We keep our content up to date and easy to understand - and provide you with reliable guidance.
We can't be complete, but we definitely want to be helpful.
