You organize periodically (1-4 times a year) meetings of our members somewhere in your region or at your home (contact with fellow sufferers).
Do you enjoy being a hostess, meeting people, being meaningful? And do you enjoy organizing things for others? Then we are looking for you!
Many people with ME / CFS have a need to interact with fellow sufferers. Preferably in their region. They can learn from each other and come out of their isolation together. Often real lasting friendships develop there.
We have so-called fellow sufferers lists of people who would like to come into contact with other ME / CFS patients.
You organize such a meeting in your region (in a church, a community center or just at your home) a few times a year. That doesn't have to be anything special, usually just a cup of coffee and a slice of cake and shouldn't take more than two hours.
But its impact is huge. People enjoy and always look forward to it. And it is also nice for yourself because you see that you help fellow human beings and give companionship.

About ME/CVS Stichting Nederland
The ME / CFS Stichting Nederland is committed to strengthening the position of patients with ME / CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome). We focus on ALL ME / CFS patients. Regardless of the severity of their illness, their origin, gender or age. Young people with ME / CFS receive extra attention from us. They still have a life ahead of them and deserve extra help.
We do this by:
- Aiming for broad recognition and recognition of ME / CFS as a very serious disabling physical disease
- offering (a platform for) contact with fellow sufferers
- Contribute with progress towards the cure of ME / CFS
- as a knowledge center for ME / CFS to contribute to the sharing of information, knowledge and experience
- contribute from our network to scientific research aimed at the cure of ME / CFS.
For this we focus on ME / CFS patients, their family members and relatives, healthcare professionals and policymakers. We continuously work to achieve our goals with dedication, independence, integrity and an open attitude. We have an inclusive, positive basic attitude. We look at what can still be done and what can be improved. We are optimistic and enjoy our work. Our bottle is always half full and never half empty.
