Stadt Büren

The Bürgerhilfe Büren e.V. is a self-help organization based on the principle of mutual aid. Founded in 2012, it supports people in the region in coping with everyday life and promotes solidarity.

• Help at home: Support in the household and with everyday tasks.
• Help on the go: Driving services to doctors or shopping facilities.
• Help with authorities: Support with visits to authorities and administrative tasks.
• Visiting services: Visits to elderly and lonely fellow citizens.
• Relief for family caregivers: Support for family members providing care.
• Homework help and language support: Support for families with children and young people.

The main mission of the Bürgerhilfe Büren is to help people in need and improve the quality of life of elderly and needy people. The association attaches great importance to voluntary work and the promotion of solidarity in the community. Helpers can use their skills accordingly and collect time credits, which they can redeem later if they need help themselves.

The Bürgerhilfe Büren is part of a comprehensive network in the municipality and works closely with local institutions to maintain and improve the quality of life of the population. The association was awarded in the competition "Nordrhein-Westfalen – hier hat alt werden Zukunft" (North Rhine-Westphalia - growing old has a future here), which underlines its outstanding efforts to integrate older people. Through the voluntary organization and financing through membership fees and donations, the association remains independent and flexible in its assistance.

The Bürgerhilfe Büren regularly networks with other local organizations, such as the Seniorenbeirat (Senior Citizens' Advisory Council), the city administration and Caritas. These partnerships make it possible to effectively mediate requests for help and implement joint projects. The focus is on supporting people in the municipality to promote their independence and well-being.
