Volunteering abroad

Would you like to go abroad and volunteer as part of a memorial, peace, or social service?
Would you like to get to know a new country and live in a different culture?
Would you like to gain valuable social experience, continue your personal development, and help other volunteers have the same kind of experience?
If so, then you’ve come to the right place!

With us, people of all ages and genders have the opportunity to complete a volunteer service abroad lasting between 6 and 12 months, contributing every day with heart and commitment at one of the many project sites as well as within our organization.

As we are a sending organization recognized by the Federal Ministry of Social Affairs, Health, Care and Consumer Protection for volunteer service, a volunteer service abroad completed through our association is financially supported by the Ministry and, if lasting at least 10 months, can be fully recognized as an alternative civilian service.
As a volunteer, you can choose to complete a Memorial Service, Social Service, or Peace Service:

• Memorial Service focuses especially on commemorating the victims of the Holocaust.
• Social Service contributes to sustainable social development through educational projects, environmental protection, and medical care.
• Peace Service supports peace projects related to current or past conflicts.

If you decide to complete your volunteer service abroad through our organization, we will support you step by step — from preparation until the start of your service and beyond.
Within our organization, you will prepare yourself thematically, linguistically, and culturally for your service, and you can exchange ideas with current and former volunteers as well as other candidates about our work and life abroad.
