Arbeiterwohlfahrt (AWO) (Workers Welfare) is a German welfare association. AWO is decentralized and based on personal memberships in its local associations. It is one of the six leading associations for independent welfare in Germany and with around 242,000 full-time employees one of the largest employers in Germany.[1]
The AWO was founded in 1919 by nurse and seamstress Marie Juchacz, one of the first women in the National Assembly, and is a deeply rooted part of the German workers' movement.[2] The AWO is committed to the values of liberal democratic socialism.[3]
The AWO is structured federally and has 30 state and district associations. There are 411 district associations and over 3,500 local associations. The AWO has over 333,000 members.
