About Stichting VanHarte

A Resto is a cozy neighborhood restaurant where everyone can join. It is the place where loneliness is exchanged for a listening ear. And all while enjoying a tasty and healthy meal. Together with our volunteers, we welcome guests at 50 locations. These are places in large and medium-sized cities where we all want to combat loneliness. Because half of the Dutch feel lonely. And we can do something about that.

The driving forces behind Resto VanHarte is a professional team of Resto Managers, Catering Managers and volunteers. They are supported by a small team at the central office in Amsterdam. Thanks to their efforts and the contributions of donors, the government and companies, Resto VanHarte organizes approximately 100,000 meetings every year! And where we can, we also organize other activities to combat loneliness.
