Since 1992, WWOOF Germany has been committed as a non-profit association to organic farming, environmental awareness, and communities based on solidarity. To achieve these goals, we facilitate educational stays on organic farms, promote cultural exchange, and raise awareness for sustainable lifestyles through events and public relations work. Our work brings people together – because we are convinced that sustainability can only be achieved collectively. Here you can learn more about WWOOF’s impact!

How is my donation used?
The non-profit association WWOOF Germany is funded primarily through membership fees and donations. Every donation helps us maintain our core operations and fulfill our mission of facilitating encounters and learning experiences on organic farms via the WWOOF farm list, adhering to the highest quality standards. Building on this, we are able to offer further exchange and training opportunities, such as events, thematic workshops, and online formats. By maintaining close contact with participating farms and addressing the concerns of all stakeholders individually, your donation supports the development of a healthy network. At the same time, many small donations serve as a financial pillar for the association, helping us remain independent. You can find the current annual and financial report on our Transparency page.
Who should I contact if I have questions about donating?
Laura is the contact person for donations. You can reach her at fundraising@wwoof.de. A phone appointment can also be arranged to clarify any questions regarding donations.

The transparency of our finances and results is important to us, which is why we are part of the Transparent Civil Society Initiative.
