Cook the difference for a neighbor!

Stichting Thuisgekookt is the social meal service at home for and by neighbors.


A fresh, hot meal on the table every day: it is not something everyone takes for granted. Stichting Thuisgekookt therefore links volunteer home cooks who lovingly cook an extra portion once or twice a week with a neighbor who could use some help with a hot meal due to age, illness or a disability.


What does a home chef do?

A home cook is someone who voluntarily cooks a healthy evening meal once or twice a week and shares it with a neighbor for whom cooking is difficult.

A home chef enjoys cooking and is happy to cook an extra portion to help someone. The meal will be picked up or delivered if the meal recipient is unable to pick it up themselves.

As a home chef, you cook voluntarily and only charge for the ingredients. When you register you will be included in our database of home chefs. Is there a registration from someone in your area? We will then contact you. You only decide at the time whether the application suits you.


The benefits of becoming a home chef

As a home chef you can make a difference with little effort and from your own home. By helping a neighbor for whom putting a tasty, fresh meal on the table is not self-evident, you contribute to a connected society in which people take care of each other. Research shows that home cooks often eat healthier themselves, experience more structure in their day and experience cooking for a neighbor as a valuable use of their time. Will you help?

About Stichting Thuisgekookt

Stichting Thuisgekookt arranges meals at home for anyone who is no longer able to cook themselves every day due to physical or mental complaints. For example, because you are chronically ill, have a disability, feel lonely, or because you have little energy for cooking due to old age or mental illness.

At Stichting Thuisgekookt we strive for a healthy hot meal and meaningful social contact accessible to everyone. That is why we ensure that the meal is offered at cost price and is therefore also available to people with a smaller wallet. For people who cannot afford the cost price, the Thuisgekookt Foundation works with a donation pot, from which the meals can be paid.
