Samen voor onze Regio listens carefully to your needs and offers targeted support through the deployment of volunteers, donations, and network connections from the business community.
Together,
more hands,
more heart,
more resources,
for our region!
Our Services
Head - Expertise to help your organization move forward, for example in strategy development, IT, or communication. Through our network, we connect you to knowledge and expertise from the business world, via knowledge cafés, pro bono days, or customized issues.
Heart - Time and attention for your target group through the deployment of corporate volunteers. From a walk with the elderly, an afternoon of games with people with disabilities, to a museum visit with newcomers. We follow your wishes and look for volunteers.
Hands - Extra helping hands for your job. Even if you don't work directly for a target group, corporate volunteers can make a difference. Think of maintaining the garden, painting the community center, or helping with a renovation.
Resources - Financial or practical donations from the business community and the funding community to social organizations. From monetary donations to laptops or office furniture. You can also contact us with specific donation requests.

“For some, it was the first decent pair of pants they’d had in a long time. What struck us was the dignity with which the clothes were donated and received. These weren’t just hand-me-downs, but items that had clearly been chosen with care. It was wonderful to see how many people from the region showed their support.”
“We wouldn’t have gotten this far without volunteers,” says Jalilla Essaidi of BioArt Laboratories, referring to the renovation project of the five historic World War II bunkers that house their small-scale foundation.
“The benefits of participating in activities with Samen voor onze Regio include gaining new experiences, feeling a sense of belonging, and sharing these experiences with one another. It also provides an opportunity to show corporate volunteers how important it is to engage in volunteer work, both now and in the future.”
“The corporate volunteer activities make wonderful, meaningful contributions, giving other organizations a glimpse into Dichterbij,” says Dichterbij about the various corporate volunteer activities organized at their day-care centers.
“They’re really only used to using a phone and are now learning how to apply for jobs and send emails the Dutch way. It’s a valuable step toward their independence,” said Huiskamer voor Vluchtelingen regarding the donation of laptops by DLL, which was coordinated through Samen voor onze Regio.
“I would definitely like to continue volunteering at the Passaat nursing home in the future because ‘Samen voor onze Regio’ always organizes everything so well! And there’s always a wonderful connection that forms between our residents and the corporate volunteers.”
“The residents receive extra attention, and the volunteers enjoy a wonderful, enriching afternoon,” says Lunet Woonpark de Donksbergen. A community where 250 people with intellectual disabilities—young and old alike—live and work.
Trudie from Markieza talks about their participation in the Pro Bono Communication Day. “It was a real rollercoaster ride, but everything ran like a well-oiled machine. We produced two really great podcasts, and I can’t wait to share them with the world.”
Thais de Wind had this to say about the painting work and the floor replacement carried out by Stam + de Koning as part of the construction companies’ supply chain partnership: “We are very satisfied with the assistance we received through you. We are incredibly happy with it! Kudos!”
