Proceeds of 823 euros at Jumbo's!

In recent weeks, during the Tour de France, the 's-Hertogenbosch-Vught Youth Fund for Sports & Culture was the charity of choice for no fewer than four Jumbo supermarkets in our region. These were Jumbo Harry Coppensstraat in Rosmalen, Jumbo Raadhuisstraat in Vught, Jumbo Hofvijver, and Jumbo Rompertpassage in 's-Hertogenbosch.

Customers could donate their deposit slips to the Youth Fund. This raised a total of €823. The Youth Fund uses these proceeds to pay sports club memberships or tuition for cultural activities for young people under 18. These are young people from families who lack sufficient funds to participate in sports and cultural activities.

The Youth Sports & Culture Fund is the primary charity of Team Jumbo-Visma, the combined cycling and speed skating team. It's the team of Sven Kramer, Tom Dumoulin, Wout van Aert, Primoz Roglic, and Marianne Vos.

All children participate!

In the municipalities of 's-Hertogenbosch and Vught, 3,200 children under the age of 18 are growing up in families with low disposable incomes. As a result, there's insufficient money to pay sports club fees or creative arts classes. These children miss out on all sorts of experiences that other children their age take for granted. Sports and culture help children develop optimally physically, mentally, and socially. This is important for the child's future, but also for the family and ultimately for society as a whole.
