We make it possible for refugees with a residence permit to temporarily stay with Dutch host families while waiting for their own home. We facilitate that with our team of volunteers. 

What drives us? Through offering temporary housing, we can positively contribute to the integration of refugees into Dutch society.

The transition from living in a refugee centre to finding a private home can take a long time and in many cases it is unclear when the refugee will be assigned his/her own house. A temporary stay with a host family shortens this waiting time in the refugee centre and is much more pleasant and productive. Within the guest agreement of COA (Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers) the refugee is allowed to stay with a host family for three months.

We help refugees with a residence permit to leave the refugee centre sooner so they can start building a new life: learning the Dutch language, getting acquainted with the Dutch culture and their new surroundings.

On the other hand we offer host families the opportunity to come into contact with new Dutch residents and to contribute in a specific and realistic way to society. This is mutually enriching for the host families and the refugees.
