Digital buddies wanted!

Society is becoming increasingly digital, but not everyone can keep up. Become a Digimaatje and help others find their way in the digital world! We all want to stay connected with our family and friends. But video calling, WhatsApp or emailing is not easy for everyone. For some people, the computer or smartphone almost feels like an alien device. That is why the project was created: Digimaatjes. What can I expect? After an intake interview with VIP project coordinator Annemarie, you will be paired with a person seeking help: someone who wants to further develop his/her digital skills. You will teach your buddy the basics of a computer, smartphone or tablet. Think of video calling with family, sending photos via WhatsApp or using Word. You will meet four times on average, after which your buddy can move forward independently! And rest assured: you really don't have to be an IT specialist yourself or know everything about the latest apps. As a Digimaatje, you can easily make a difference for someone else! In preparation, you will receive a short training of one day, offered by the ROC. There you will receive tools to help others in an easy way. Furthermore, you can always contact VIPvoorElkaar with all your questions and we organize a fun and inspiring intervision meeting for all Digimaatjes twice a year. Are you… โ— Digitally handy and do you enjoy sharing your knowledge with others? โ— Ready for the challenge of helping people with limited digital skills overcome their fear of the digital world? โ— Available for about an hour a week? โ— Looking for fun, challenging volunteer work that you can get a lot of satisfaction from?

Chairman of the music association Da Capo

Weekly ยท 3 to 4 hours
VIPvoorelkaar

The Da Capo music association is a concert band where making music together is the most important thing. We are currently looking for a chairman. We make music every week during rehearsals on Friday afternoons in the Boodschap. Our musicians come from all over the region. But what is certainly great is that as a music association we also want to make our social contribution. These are our concerts in nursing and care homes. Da Capo plays well-known melodies that everyone recognizes, sings along or sets in motion. Songs from Dutch origin or well-known French chansons show happy faces in the audience. The orchestra members enjoy it and it is wonderful to see how the music brings out radiant faces in the audience. It is satisfying to take care of that. Once a year we give a big concert at the Cultural Center de Boodschap in Rijen, usually in the spring. This concert is free for Da Capo's friends. Music association Da Capo rehearses every Friday afternoon. The rehearsal times are from 1:45 PM to 4:00 PM at the Cultural Center De Boodschap in Rijen. For those who want, we can have a nice chat after the rehearsal while enjoying a drink. New musicians are welcome and anyone who would like to get acquainted can come along to one of the rehearsals. Come listen or bring your instrument to try. The atmosphere is relaxed and our goal is to make fun music. More information? Send a message.

Monthly ยท 0 to 2 hours
VIPvoorelkaar

Empower your neighborhood - become a Neighborhood Connector! Doing something good for someone else can start very locally: in your own street, neighborhood or village! With that idea, the new BuurtvoorElkaar project was created in Rijen. Are you also looking for more connection and contact in your neighborhood? Then register as a Neighborhood Connector! A neighborhood becomes more powerful when its residents know each other better and want to do something for each other. In the BuurtvoorElkaar project we help Rijen residents to use their talents for the neighborhood. To no longer be left with a question or idea, but to approach a neighbor! With the spider in the web: the Neighborhood Connector. Wanted: Neighborhood Connectors! Neighborhood connectors play a key role. They are enthusiasts who want to do something for their village or neighborhood (or have been doing so for a long time) and find it important that their neighbors feel comfortable. The Neighborhood Connectors are involved, for example, in: - organizing activities for the neighborhood (with the help of other residents, volunteers or professionals); - gain the trust of their neighbors, so that they can be a listening ear and point of contact for questions or ideas; - linking the right people together (this can be resident to resident, but also resident to volunteer, professional or organization); - inspire neighbors to also take action for the neighborhood and to check out their neighbors more often! This is what you can expect: - Freedom to fill the role yourself based on your wishes, talents and strengths! - Support from the professionals of VIPvoorElkaar. We will look for your talent together, help you start up your ideas or arrange extra hands and are ready for coaching and advice. - Fun and meaningful volunteer work, close to home. - A basic training in which you learn which other organizations are active in your neighborhood. This gives you a good basis for referral for specific requests for help. - Several times a year there are intervision meetings and activities for all volunteer Neighborhood Connectors, allowing you to build a nice network. So, do you want more fun and solidarity in your neighborhood? Do you recognize yourself in the role of Neighborhood Connector, or do you just have a nice idea to organize something for your neighborhood?
