Vrijwilligers Centrale Amsterdam

Vrijwilligers Centrale Amsterdam (VCA) strengthens voluntary work so that everyone can make an optimum contribution to Amsterdam society.

We do this by showing future volunteers the way and connecting them to social organisations, facilitating these organisations with knowledge and tools and making the added value of voluntary work in the city visible.

Our mediators are there for everyone, offering a personal consultation when making a choice and organising information meetings for potential volunteers. With advisory talks, practical information, workshops and training sessions, our advisors help social organisations and initiatives to develop further and to work successfully with volunteers. In order to recruit and appreciate volunteers, we set up public campaigns and represent the interests of the field.
