Are you a young professional? then go on a date with a senior! A date that makes you feel better. With special stories and inspiration.
In the meantime the 12th edition of "Before you know it, you have a date" is coming up. On Saturday, February 8, it is that time again and we can again fully play the role of Cupid, to help seniors and young professionals to a date. Not to send them on a date with someone from their own, well-known circuit of study friends or bingo partners; but just to meet someone else.
The younger talks about his sky-storming plans for the life that still extends untouched for him and the senior tells about the life that is already largely behind him. An afternoon together on a pink cloud, on a date to a museum in the city, a café around the corner, enjoying the beautiful view in the Zuida tower or on a canal boat. We celebrate the Valentine's Day event in Amsterdam & Rotterdam.
Why?
About half of all elderly people feel socially lonely. Often children no longer live in the neighborhood and family members often die. During “before you know it, you have a date”, we link the elderly to the young, precisely for both to meet someone else. Exchange stories and have a great afternoon with each other.
Volunteer
On 8 February you will guide the groups to one of the many locations or you can roll up your sleeves at De Nieuwe Poort itself. In this way, together with all of them, we ensure that you, the seniors and the other participating young professionals have the day of their lives.

About De Nieuwe Poort
The New Gate is for everyone. The business public of the Zuidas (Amsterdam) and the Central District (Rotterdam) will find peace and reflection there, there is room for lectures and debate, and you can meet people there who you normally don't just bump into. Of course you can also just walk in for a snack and a drink. But know that your coffee is roasted by former prisoners of Heilige Boontjes, your lunch is prepared by in-house trained chefs with a distance to the labor market and your wine is poured by a host who worked in the refugee camps on Lesvos. Everything we do comes from one conviction: the world is a better place if we take care of each other.
