I help Bibi Fazal from the Welschenflats. She tries to give people with a small budget little groceries that residents of Overschie donate. She selflessly offers help with clothing, organises things, and sometimes cooks. Makes Christmas and Easter more fun and works together with Plus, Zeeman, the Protestant church, etc. The help is small-scale but more and more people join in. I think that's a boost. And HWD every Tuesday jumble sale and singers performing and working together with other parties that do something social for the elderly and young people. Thea and Chris cook 100 meals every week for lonely vulnerable elderly people on Tuesdays, free of charge. And recently second-hand clothing and bric-a-brac knick-knacks on Thursday in a little shop at Ameide Street, 10 to 2. So many good initiatives done through cooperation by volunteers. Top people. And the volunteers of Schoon en Heel Roelland, from the board and Leefbaar, who focus on what can be improved.
