"In 2019, I got the chance to do my final internship abroad. I always dreamed of going to Africa and making a small difference there. During my search for the perfect internship spot, I came across Why Not Foundation. The small scale and involved atmosphere immediately appealed to me. Together with the foundation I started looking for a school near the office and there I gave sports lessons to the children with disabilities. In addition to giving sports lessons, I was also active as a volunteer for the Why Not foundation in Kenya. I went along on home visits, I saw the therapy days, attended many events and went on school visits to many of our children.
The experiences I had there are unforgettable for me. I could see with my own eyes how involved the foundation is in every child's life. I wanted to continue to contribute in the Netherlands. The opportunity arose to become coordinator of sponsorship reports and I took it with pleasure.
My motto: a small contribution, makes a big difference."
