Two reasons to google for this blog again: "Voluntary poverty". Many results on the first page refer to support services involving volunteers: the tables, for example, or a project to Mainz debt. But there are also a hit, which refers to an article of the WZB (Science Center Berlin for Social Research).

Strengthening civil society through volunteering is therefore only indirectly an issue of material resources of the citizens. "
