Sporty, enterprising buddy wanted for 9-year-old boy

Many children have fewer opportunities to participate in society for various reasons; due to a disability, poverty, loneliness or other reasons. Mooie Middag Maatjes is a buddy project for children and young people between the ages of 4 and 18 who are in a vulnerable situation. For them, it is nice to regularly receive all the attention and gain new experiences. Their world is expanded. In addition, the parents receive support and are relieved for a while.

What it entails:
• As a volunteer buddy, you come by once a week or once every two weeks to do fun things with the child
• This can be at the child's home or you can do activities outside the home. For example, going to the museum together, playing a game, making music together, cycling or swimming together
• As a buddy, you give exclusive attention to the child

Would you like to do something for a child, but do you find it difficult to combine volunteer work with study or work? Then consider becoming a buddy together with your friend, girlfriend, housemate, sister, neighbor, aunt or whoever. A lot is possible!

What we ask:
- Patient
- Kindness
- Good social and communication skills
- Reliable
- Enterprising
- Available for at least six months; we ask this because it takes time to build a trusting relationship with a child and almost all children need long-term buddy contact.
