Becoming a buddy at Buddy to Buddy Leeuwarden!
Description
At Buddy to Buddy Leeuwarden, we are not looking for the average volunteer, but for someone who enjoys building contacts with other people, including newcomers from abroad. These are often people who have been living in the Netherlands for a while or recently. Buddy to Buddy pairs these newcomers with fellow town and village residents on the basis of equality and shared interests.
We are looking for people who are open to getting to know other people's cultures, traditions, hobbies, etc. in an approachable way. During a four-month programme, you and your buddy will give a glimpse into each other's lives, doing various activities together. In addition, you and your buddy can also meet each other in our Sedrana living room, which is open every Wednesday and Thursday!
The four months will end with a smashing closing party!
Every last Wednesday of the month there is Buddycafé in our living room Sedrana at Schoolstraat 1 in Leeuwarden from 19.00 to 21.00. Come and join us, everyone is welcome!

What does the organisation offer the volunteer?
At Buddy to Buddy Leeuwarden, you get the chance to meet new people and learn a lot about other cultures. You will become part of a group of enthusiastic people with whom you will share experiences and do fun activities.
Being a buddy doesn't take much time, just a few hours a week. How easy but cosy is it to cook and eat dinner together for once?
Your presence is appreciated, by us and also by the newcomers!
What does the organisation ask of the volunteer?
We are looking for people who are open to new contacts, cultures, stories and experiences, and that you can empathise with a newcomer's situation. We are also looking for people who want to spend a few hours a week with a buddy. Think about a fun activity together. Who knows, maybe a beautiful friendship will develop!
We also definitely appreciate it when someone comes up with new ideas or ideas for activities!
