Every week supermarkets throw away a lot of food. Do you think this is a waste? Together with other volunteers, collect food from the supermarkets and bring it to our location. On Wednesday mornings we distribute this to people in the neighborhood. Join us

Every Tuesday evening you gather around 20:30 at the Vechtstraat, together with other volunteers, including a number of students from the VU. There is a cargo bike that you can use, if you have a car yourself that is also very nice! With this you cycle or drive to a number of supermarkets in the area. They know that you are coming and give you the crates with the food, that they would otherwise throw away. You bring this back to the Vechtstraat, where you put the things that need to stay cool in the refrigerator and you leave the rest in crates at the location. The next morning a large group of residents come who are very happy with this food. Residents who now form a close community, in which people also help each other and new friendships are made. Thanks to your help, much less food is thrown away and you help people who really need it. This also allows people to meet each other, who otherwise might never have spoken to each other and there is more and more brotherhood, instead of alienation in the neighborhood. You will have a pleasant evening, in which you will be physically active, have nice conversations with people from the supermarket and the other volunteers. So don’t hesitate and come help us!
Respond to this vacancy and we will contact you!
