Aichach-Friedberg Volunteer Agency: Start seminars for volunteers!

In the first half of 2026, there are numerous seminars for clubs on the program, which are offered by the Aichach-Friedberg district volunteer agency. Those interested can find out more about the offers that are specifically tailored to the needs of volunteers and club managers on the volunteer agency's website. In addition to support from specialist and advisory centers, the agency also offers free initial legal advice from lawyer Richard Didyk, which covers topics such as statutes, board work, liability, data protection and starting a new association. These services aim to optimize and legally secure voluntary work in the clubs.

A special highlight is the cooperation with the Aichach-Friedberg adult education center, which offers a workshop on “flyer design with Canva with the help of AI”. This seminar is aimed at volunteers who would like to learn how they can design appealing communication tools for their work with the support of artificial intelligence. Further information and registration for this workshop is available on the community college website. A newsletter is also available for current topics, funding opportunities and the volunteer agency's seminars.
