Stichting Jarige Job

For many children, a birthday with gifts, visitors and treats at school is a matter of course. This is not the case for tens of thousands of children in the Netherlands. They cannot celebrate their birthday because there is too little or even no money at home. On the most beautiful day of the year, these children do not receive a present, there are no streamers and balloons and they cannot treat themselves at school. Out of shame they sometimes call in sick themselves. The Jarige Job Foundation treats children from the poorest families to an unforgettable birthday. We don't give money, but a birthday box full of decorations, treats for the class and teachers, some sweets for visitors and of course a nice gift.
