Voluntary services: New opportunities for school leavers in Saxony-Anhalt

While the school year is coming to an end on July 2, 2025, many school leavers in Saxony-Anhalt are faced with the challenge of not having a training or study place. In times when the pressure on young people is increasing, voluntary service can be a valuable opportunity. In this context, the DRK Landesverband Sachsen-Anhalt e.V. offers numerous opportunities for professional orientation and practical experience. These initiatives are aimed particularly at undecided school leavers and young people who have not yet taken a clear way to make future -oriented decisions.

The voluntary service, which is designed as a one-year commitment to people without a training or study place, not only is a way to bridge bridging, but also offers valuable insights into different social activities. The volunteers experience up close how they can make a difference in areas such as geriatric assistance, disabled help, health and nursing, as well as in integration aid. In addition, activities in child, youth and family help as well as in digital, scientific and sustainable projects are on the plan, which makes commitment broad and exciting.

attractive advantages and recognition

Voluntary service not only comes with a monthly pocket money and other non -cash payments. The social security benefits that are entitled to the volunteers must also not go unmentioned. In addition, the entitlement to child benefit is up to 25 years, which represents another plus for young people. Many of the services that the volunteers provide are even recognized as part of the vocational training or as a waiting semester for studying, which underlines the flexibility and value of the program.

particularly emphasized is the personal support that the volunteers receive during their commitment. Daily feedback on their services helps the participants to develop their skills and work on their strengths. Accompanying seminars and study trips offer additional learning space and perspectives to further develop themselves. This combination of practice and theory is an integral part of the voluntary service, such as [Hallanzeiger] (https://www.hallanzeiger.de/informations_sachsen-anhalt_halle-saalekreis/02-07-2025-offene-deployment, reports.
