About Volunteer The Hague

A non-profit initiative founded by the Municipality of The Hague and PEP, Volunteer the Hague connects internationals with meaningful volunteer opportunities at local non-profit organizations. By empowering internationals to contribute their skills, we strengthen capacity at local non-profit organizations to create a lasting change in the community. Our platform combined with our team of staff and volunteers offers a variety of support services that internationals and organizations can utilize.


Our Mission

Volunteering and community engagement empowers people to change the world from the grassroots up, especially when enabled by partnerships at every level. Volunteer The Hague is the project specifically made to facilitate these engagements by connecting internationals in The Hague with local non-profit organizations and support both in creating positive change through volunteering.


Our Vision

The Hague is a place where all nationalities come together, forming a multicultural society. Every local non-profit organization in The Hague has the opportunity to benefit from this multinational environment where international volunteers help these organizations to achieve their fullest potential and meaningfully contribute to positively transforming our society.


Our Team

The VTH team consists of our project manager, staff, and a committed group of volunteers, but despite the small size of the team, VTH has brought together different local non-profit organizations with a large number of non-Dutch speaking individuals from different backgrounds and nationalities residing in The Hague area to fulfill organizational volunteer needs and allow a better involvement with the local community and easier integration. Coming from 5 different countries, we are here to make your volunteering experience as smooth as possible.

My life motto is “Where there’s a will there's a way!” I love a good challenge and absolutely adore a bubble bath with candles while watching an anime.

My passion is making videos, but that's not the only thing I do. Nothing is impossible if you haven't tried it yet - so let's try!

`Paths are made by walking` - especially regarding the support of equality and equity themes. No surprise, then, that I relax most walking my dog in a park and listening to true crime podcasts.
