Weitergewährung einer Waisen- oder Halbwaisenrente während der Ableistung eines FsJ/FöJ, nicht aber eines europäischen Freiwilligendienstes (G-SIG: 16040892)

This question asks whether orphans or half-orphans can continue to receive their pensions while undertaking a voluntary social or ecological year in Germany. It also questions why this is not permitted for European voluntary service. This concerns young people undertaking voluntary service and their financial support. It may affect their decision to participate in different types of voluntary service.
