AWO Kreisverband Berlin Spree-Wuhle e. V.

What AWO Kreisverband Berlin Spree-Wuhle e. V. does

AWO Kreisverband Berlin Spree-Wuhle e. V. is a registered nonprofit association (eingetragener Verein) under German law, operating as a regional chapter of the Arbeiterwohlfahrt (AWO) Bundesverband, Germany's large politically independent welfare association historically affiliated with the SPD. The chapter was formed through the merger of the former AWO Kreisverband Kreuzberg and AWO Kreisverband Friedrichshain and serves two Berlin districts — Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg and Marzahn-Hellersdorf — from its registered office at Rigaer Straße 55b, 10247 Berlin.

The organization delivers a broad portfolio of community-based social services. It operates nine Kindertagesstätten (Kitas — Galileo, Leonardo, Lingulino, Sonnenschein, Spreemöwe, Tausendfüßchen, Weidenkätzchen, Wichtelbühne, Wuhlehopser), three community/neighborhood centers (Stadtteilzentrum Adalbertstraße, Stadtteiltreff Hellersdorf-Nord, Stadtteiltreff Mahlsdorf-Süd / Haus der Begegnung), three youth and family centers (JFE Balzerplatz, Die Nische, Villa Pelikan), an adventure playground (Forcki), women's shelter and overnight accommodation (Notübernachtung Mitten im Kiez), the LGBTQI+ Queere Schutzwohnung, debt and insolvency counseling, the Bayouma-Haus counseling facility, the Frauenprojekt Mariposa, the Kiez-Café, and senior day care (Tagespflege am Park). It also runs established family-education programs (HIPPY, E:du/Opstapje, Rucksack, Kita-Einstieg, Bildungswegbegleiter) and the CoNTeS migration-support service.

The revenue model is non-commercial: services are funded primarily through public grants and government contracts from the Berlin Senate Administration (labor/social affairs and education/youth/family) and the two district offices, supplemented by lottery/charitable grants (e.g., Deutsche Postcodelotterie, Aktion Mensch) and membership fees. Pricing to end beneficiaries is not commercially structured. Governance rests with an elected Kreisvorstand chaired by C. Meyerdierks, with H. Langkau serving as Geschäftsführer (Managing Director). A senior chapter official, E. Badinski, was awarded the Verdienstmedaille des Verdienstordens der Bundesrepublik Deutschland by Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier in 2022 in recognition of long-standing municipal political and AWO engagement since 1975.
