Summary

Alvin would like to go for a walk, drive the car, see a movie, or do something fun on Wednesday evenings or weekends.

Detailed description

Who is Alvin?

Alvin is a 23-year-old young man with a mild intellectual disability. He lives in a residential group in de Maten, where he receives 24-hour guidance. Alvin is a sweet, helpful boy with humor. He likes gaming, cooking, cinema, gymnastics and likes to go to the woods for a walk or go for a ride in the car. He cannot do this alone and would like to do it with a volunteer. Alvin has autism. Structure and clarity give him something to hold on to.

What does Alvin ask?

We are looking for a buddy for him who would like to go out with him once a month or rather more often.

Escape from the crowds for a while. Someone who, just like him, enjoys socializing.

A walk in the woods, a tour in the car, watching a movie in the cinema or another fun outing in consultation. On Wednesday evening or at the weekend.

Just an hour or 2 on the road is already of great added value.

We offer you

  • A nice volunteer place
  • An end of year gift
  • Insured for WA and accidents
  • Travel allowance
  • Annual volunteer party as a thank you for your efforts
  • Possibility of training and information meetings
  • Committed contribution to clients
  • Plenty of appreciation and a priceless experience
