Why become a volunteer at Stap Verder?

What makes Stap Verder unique as a location and organization to do volunteer work is that you work in an international environment. You come into contact with people who have their roots in all kinds of cultures and continents. They often live in a completely different environment than yours, which makes it interesting to get to know them.

 

In Stap Verder you become a member of a kind of family, but then of a very large family whose members sometimes live at home for a while, but then leave again, which you sometimes don't see for years and then suddenly stand at the door. And some visitors come once for information and we never see it again. They then continue on their way.  

Taking care of each other is paramount and wanting to be of service to others. Together we try to get one step further in life and help each other with that.
