Helping in the world and coming back full of impressions... Our office in Karlsruhe is organising voluntary service programs with around 30 co-workers. More than 500 young people per year are sent to remedial educationa institutions, Waldorf Schools and Kindergartens in other countries and learn much about the other cultures, other people and themselves!
