The city of Rastatt emphasizes the importance of volunteer work for social cohesion in the baroque city with its specially established service point for promoting volunteering. Volunteers receive competent advice and support here. The same applies to people who would like to work together with volunteers or are interested in cooperation.
The service center bundles information, needs, existing or sought-after resources and makes them available to interested parties. Training courses and various event formats will also be offered in the near future. The service center relies on cooperation with various stakeholders. Private individuals as well as representatives of institutions and associations are cordially invited to participate and get involved.
Current projects of the Engagement Promotion Service Center
- Children and family card: The Rastatt children and family card helps parents and their children to spend their leisure time together. It also promotes the commitment of local businesses.
- Help Point Rastatt: The Rastatt Help Point project focuses on looking out for each other in the city.
- Committed city: Since March 2024, the city of Rastatt has been able to call itself a "Committed City". It is thus part of a nationwide network of more than 100 cities that are committed to promoting long-term engagement and volunteering locally.

We look forward to hearing from you! Please contact us with your initial ideas on the following questions: Which group of people would you prefer to work with? How much time should you commit? Should the volunteering take place regularly or sporadically? Would you like to get involved in an association, e.g. sporting, cultural or ecological? Then get a first impression with our club directory https://rastatt.de/kultur-und-freizeit/vereine/vereinsverzeichnis. If you do not yet have a precise idea, we will be happy to help you. Just give us a call or send us an e-mail!
