Goed voor Elkaar

Founded in 2007, Goed voor Elkaar is a charity based in Middelburg, Netherlands working on poverty & hunger, children & youth.

Stichting Goed voor Elkaar is a non-profit foundation founded in 2007 that helps people in poverty in the province of Zeeland, the Netherlands. Its main focus is families with children, since growing up in poverty often has a lasting effect on children. Since expanding its work, it also helps single people living on a minimum income, through its Project Hand in Hand. Help is mainly practical and material, including household goods, clothing and toys, for clients who are registered and meet the foundation's conditions. Its second-hand shop Lotus 2de hands in central Middelburg sells donated goods at a minimal price to registered clients and at regular second-hand prices to the public, and the income funds the foundation's work. The foundation also supports other organisations with similar aims in its area, such as Stichting Leergeld Walcheren and Voedselbank Walcheren, through donations. The foundation is an ANBI, so donors can claim tax benefits. The work is carried out entirely by volunteers, and no one receives a salary.
