Volunteering in Strasbourg

- Associations & NGOs: Strasbourg has hundreds of them! From helping the homeless to tutoring kids or supporting the environment.

- Student Volunteering: If you’re a student, your school may have its own network (like ESN for Erasmus students or university clubs).
- Civic Service (“Service Civique”): For 16–25-year-olds (up to 30 if you have a disability), this program lets you volunteer for several months and even gives you a monthly allowance (€600+). You need to have legal residency in France.
