It's GREAT that you're here! And GOOD that you have found us!
Projekt Ankommen is a non-profit organisation and offers various services for refugees from different countries in Dortmund. All services are organised and supervised by volunteers. They are free of charge for the participants. However, your registration for one (or more) of the offers is binding – that means: if you have registered for it, you should really participate (regularly).
Women's Group
An offer ONLY for women and their children. Every Friday from 11 am to 1 pm at our bureau in Elisabethstraße 5.
A good opportunity to meet in a relaxed setting, exchange ideas, practise speaking German or go on excursions together. If you are interested just write an email to kontakt@projekt-ankommen.de
Mentorships
We bring refugees and Germans together. Those interested can contact us at 0177/6261793 or patenschaften@projekt-ankommen.de.
Our volunteers would like to be contact persons for various kinds of help in everyday life. For example, they can support you in your dealings with the authorities (e.g. Social Welfare Office/Youth Welfare Office/Job Centre) or accompany you to the office if necessary. Perhaps you can arrange to go on trips together from time to time. And of course you can always practise speaking German with your mentor...
