HET KIND VAN NU

Because no child should be forgotten.

Children do not choose the circumstances they grow up in. The foundation is here for children who do not get the support, attention or opportunities they need. That might mean an opportunity, a safe place, support or a special experience. We focus on what a child needs now.

Wim Beelen’s mission

Giving children opportunities.

Wim Beelen founded Stichting Het Kind van Nu because he believes every child deserves the chance to grow, discover and build a future. He wants to make a difference when those opportunities do not come easily. Not later, but now.

FROM BOOK TO IMPACT
