Summary

Become a mentor to one of our men, help them with their daily activities and/or accompany them to medical appointments.

Detailed description

Are you a sociable conversationalist, do you have your own transportation, and/or are you willing to accompany someone to (medical) appointments occasionally? Do you also have an affinity for other cultures and speak another language besides Dutch and/or English? Perhaps you even have some medical experience, in which case we invite you to apply.


Our men's house is home to eight men who are formerly homeless, each with various medical conditions. As a team, we're not always able to accommodate everyone, so we're looking for some support.


We are a foundation with a Christian identity that helps anyone in need. We are therefore looking for people who share our values, but everyone is welcome to apply.

We're looking for people who can commit to a fixed time each week, but on-call work is also negotiable. Any help is more than welcome!
