You can find infos on how to volunteer here.
Most of our activities don’t require sign-ups, but due to limited capacity, some of them do. In our activity calendar, all activities marked with the “book” icon require registration.
For all Open Hearts Space activities, if it’s your first time joining, please check in with Tonia beforehand at antonina@hejmoberlin.org.
The short answer is no. Each project is different and in some cases you may need to know basic German for communication. We recognise the importance of linguistic diversity and continue to work in multiple languages through our projects, so those with little or no German skills have never had problems volunteering or participating.
Yes. You will be informed about when and where through our newsletter and by following us on social media. At the meetings you can get to know us, our partners and the different people involved in social projects in Berlin, meet like-minded folks and discuss ideas for collaborations.
No. You can take part in all of our activities for free. Hejmo is a registered NGO running completely from donations, so please consider donating to help us continue our work.
We welcome everyone to share their story with us and be creative together. But we also have a few basic rules for how we interact: we do not tolerate racist, ableist, misogynistic, homophobic or transphobic, or any other discriminatory behavior. You can read more about this in our Code of Conduct.
Hejmo does not have the capacity to offer free work for institutions such as consulting or placing employees in projects. We do collaborate with many partners, but appreciate when our time and efforts are included in your budget plans. You can read more about our CSR options here or get in touch at welcome@hejmoberlin.org with information about your idea.
Yes, but unfortunately, we’re not able to offer corporate volunteering activities free of charge. Planning and coordinating these sessions requires significant organizational effort on our side - resources that would otherwise go directly into our community work.
