Volunteer market in Marienfelde: Get involved with your neighbors!

Volunteer market in Marienfelde: Get involved with your neighbors!

On September 26, 2025, the Marienfelde district invites you to a special event: the volunteer market. The event aims to showcase local institutions and initiatives that offer people the opportunity to volunteer. The areas presented include work with children and young people, intercultural projects and environmental protection. The event is aimed at all interested citizens who are looking for volunteer work and want to put their skills to the service of the community. The volunteer market is organized by Ms. Schwermer, the regional coordinator for Marienfelde, the Marie-Li district center and the district volunteer office.

The volunteer market begins at 2 p.m. with an opening by district mayor Jörn Oltmann. This will be followed by a keynote speech by the Volunteer Office of the Tempelhof-Schöneberg District Office at 2:30 p.m. An introductory carousel in which possible volunteer activities are presented will take place from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The event closes at 5:00 p.m. with coffee, cake and an open exchange. An important concern of the organizers is accessibility, which can be supported upon request. Those interested are cordially invited to take part in order to get to know the variety of volunteer opportunities available locally.

Variety of offerings in the Marie-Li district center

The Marie-Li district center, which operates in both Lichtenrade and Marienfelde, is open to everyone. Regardless of age, origin, sexuality and financial situation, the center is committed to improving the quality of life and the infrastructure in the area. It also works to represent the interests of citizens in political and district structures. A specific focus is on promoting the active participation of citizens and supporting socially disadvantaged groups. The district center's offerings are intended to enable participants to participate in decision-making and provide space to contribute their own ideas and projects.

Practical information on booking appointments in Berlin

For those who have concerns with public administration, it is helpful to know that electronic appointment booking via the service.berlin.de service makes organizing appointments easier. All citizens can book appointments free of charge for non-urgent matters, such as at the Citizens' Office. For urgent matters, it is possible to go to a Berlin citizens' office without an appointment and request support at the information desk. It is also good to know that appointments can be made at all citizens' offices in Berlin, regardless of the district in which you live. We recommend checking regularly for free appointments as new offers are available every day.

The combination of volunteer work, social projects and public administration in Berlin shows how important community and active participation are for the quality of life in the districts. The Marie-Li district center and the upcoming volunteer market offer valuable platforms to combine these goals and give interested citizens the opportunity to get actively involved.
