What makes our work special is our location on the Datzeberg. In other words, the majority of our employees knowingly live in the area and not only share working life together in this respect but also freetime and in some cases private friendships with some of the people from the Datzeberg. We don’t just want to be identified as social workers but also as neighbours and friends.

Our volunteers have been the backbone to our work from the very beginning. We work with around 50 people on average. Some sporadic, the majority regulars. That makes us very happy and we do not take them for granted. Therefore it is all the more important for us to live a positive and appreciative employee culture. We hope that our volunteers can preferably work in their core competencies. To make this possible, it is an important part of our work for our employees to release our volunteers and to do the important behind-the-scenes work.

We are neither lone-wolves nor all-rounders. Therefore we partner with others to compile resources and make a positive impact in our neighbourhood. We’ll gladly work with religious or local partners and of course, with the residents of the Datzeberg.
