Do you want to help people get more control over their lives? Our volunteers visit (ex) prisoners, we want to be there for the person behind the crime.
Who are we?
The Neighboring Foundation is an interdenominational volunteer organization.
The committed and inspiring volunteers support (ex) prisoners so that they can gain more control over their lives.
Both in prison and outside.
The experiences, qualities, talents and motivation of volunteers make them a colorful whole.
We are active in the Stedendriehoek region (Zutphen, Apeldoorn, Deventer) and Achterhoek.
