What is a Ehrenamtskarte?
Short answer: a benefit card for volunteers in Bavaria, Germany.
Translated from Wikipedia:
The Ehrenamtskarte (also Ehrenamtspass) is a personal document in Germany that serves as proof of special voluntary commitment. Such a document can be issued, for example, by the state, federal states, municipalities or volunteer agencies.
Depending on how it is implemented, it may be linked to documentation of the type and scope of the activity, the skills required for it and any qualification measures. An Ehrenamtskarte or Freiwilligenausweis can also bring certain benefits, such as discounts on tickets or access to museums or other public institutions, or benefits with cooperation partners, such as companies, institutions and other supporters.
