More kids, more power, thanks to you!

Let's work together to ensure every child can participate in sports and cultural activities, where they can make new friends, develop skills, and gain self-confidence. As a "Meerkracht" (More Power), you arrange for the Youth Fund to pay for a year of soccer, guitar, hockey, hip-hop—or whatever they want.

You give a child so much more than just fitness or creativity, you give them more strength in everything!
