Volunteering in Gütersloh: Discover volunteer opportunities on November 8th!

What's going on in Gütersloh? A very special event will take place in the city library on November 8th: from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. all citizens are invited to "In conversation with clubs and initiatives - Diverse. Committed. Open." The event, organized by volunteer coordinator Elke Pauly-Teismann, offers an excellent opportunity to find out more about the various volunteer opportunities in the city.

There's a great opportunity here for anyone who wants to get involved socially! The event brings together various players, including the Gütersloh Clinic, which presents offers such as “dementia support”. The Rotary and Inner Wheel service clubs are also on site with their “Language Connects” project. Anyone interested can take a look here and find out more information without obligation, without prior registration!

Focus on volunteer initiatives

Under the motto “Diverse. Committed. Open.” The event not only offers information stands, but also volunteer advice, which is offered at the same time from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. by the volunteer coordination team. This is an excellent opportunity to get in direct contact with representatives of the various initiatives and possibly gain new colleagues for valuable projects.

For those interested in volunteer work, this is a golden opportunity to get to know the non-profit landscape in Gütersloh better.
