The AMAIDI International gGmbH is a registered non-profit organization in Germany acting globally. Since 2006, AMAIDI gives non-profit organizations access to professional volunteers in more than 55 countries worldwide. Engaged individuals and companies are able to get involved with their skills (pro bono) or with their labor (hands-on) on-site or online. All our projects are connected to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
In short, we make sure that good social ideas find the right professional volunteer support.
AMAIDI International gGmbH thus promotes social and individual development through knowledge transfer between the private, business and non-profit worlds. With project partners, volunteers and employees in more than 50 countries in Asia, Africa, Europe, Central and South America, AMAIDI is one of the leading providers of volunteer (hands-on) and pro bono (skilled-based volunteering) services worldwide. AMAIDI is a nonprofit, non-denominational and politically neutral organization.
Its clients include private individuals (of all ages, denominations, skin colours, sex), universities and companies who want to get involved locally, online or anywhere in the world. As well as project partners who need “helping hands” and “knowledge donations” for the implementation of their projects in addition to monetary and material donations.
For this purpose, opportunities for use in non-profit organizations (NPOs) worldwide are systematically brought together in a tailor-made way. Private individuals and employees of socially committed companies thus have the opportunity to work for a limited period in a non-profit company and effectively do good with their skills.
Our projects range from the organisation of a summer party at an NPO in the region to the preparation of a marketing plan for an elephant camp in India. The assignment depends on the skills, aptitude and professional training of the volunteers.
Effective training and consulting services for the preparation and performance of volunteer work ensure sustainability.

For this 100% digital edition, you were more than 330 to register for 3 days and 10 hours of discussions. This enthusiasm and the speeches of the 40 speakers confirmed that the pro bono has a nice future!
Civic involvement is already strongly practiced in many parts of society, but it can still be developed – especially as a permanent feature of corporate cultures. As a former financial and investment advisor, I would like to personally promote this. After almost ten years of work for the Foundation, I can say with full conviction: “Altruism is the best kind of egoism”.
Good Deeds Day is an annual tradition of good deeds. All over the world, hundreds of thousands choose to volunteer and help others, putting into practice the simple idea that every single person can do something good, be it large or small, to improve the lives of others and positively change the world.
