Working as a buddy at Careibu

As a volunteer, intern or part-time job at Careibu, you will be matched with a senior, a child from a family that could use your help or someone with dementia. Together you bridge the gap between different generations and make the world a bit more beautiful


What are you going to do?

  • Have a nice chat and listen to beautiful stories
  • Do something fun together in your city
  • Help with small chores around the house
  • Support with activities


What does it get you?

  • Real connections: You build a special bond with someone who really appreciates your help.
  • More meaning: You make a positive impact on someone else and on your own life. Plus: a conversation with someone outside your own bubble is educational!
  • Experience: This looks great on your resume and is a great learning experience for life!
  • An (unexpected) friendship: You can experience beautiful moments together with your match. From a visit to the Rijksmuseum to a cup of coffee in your favorite café!


What do you need?

  • A little time and a big heart
  • Want to do something good
  • Reliability and an open attitude


What can you count on?

  • You have control over who you are matched with.
  • Wich activities? How often do you see each other? And when? You make the agreements yourself together with your match.
  • We give you all the information and training you need to get started with confidence. You don't need any specific experience to get started.
