Summary

Antoan wants to go out with a volunteer

Detailed description

Who is Anton?

Antoan is a 19-year-old boy with a mild intellectual disability. He is a sweet, spontaneous and very social boy. He demands a lot of attention, but appreciates the attention very much. It's always fun with him. He always behaves nicely outside of the group. Anthony is very creative. He is self-reliant and mobile. He has a number of disorders, which makes him ask for clarity and structure. He finds it difficult to determine where the boundary lies. But with someone next to him, you'll be fine.

What is Anthony asking?

Antoan is looking for a buddy (man) between 25 and 50 years old. Someone with whom he can do fun things such as; playing sports, playing football, cycling, swimming, going to the movies, playing darts, going downtown, shopping, fishing or being outside. Preferably during the weekend, but occasionally during the week could also be possible. The volunteer must be confident, clear and assertive. It would be nice if you are also creative and have enough energy.

  • A nice volunteer place
  • An end-of-year gift
  • Insured for third party liability and accidents
  • Travel allowance
  • Annual volunteer party as a thank you for your efforts
