Rene's story

Rene's story A few years ago, the “Giveaway Corner” started in Activities Center De Bunthoef. René: ”The Giveaway Corner was set up to give useful items a second chance. People who cannot easily buy something, regularly find something they need with us”. Together with his colleague Nel, René checks the equipment for usability. They see clothing, books, decoration and kitchen items, among other things. René is working on it every working day. “Early last year I was asked to tackle this. Initially I was working on it for a few hours a week, but now it is 5 days a week”. René is clear about his motivation: “It gives me satisfaction when I am doing something meaningful. For me it makes sense if I notice that I make others happy with what I do. Their enthusiasm motivates me to continue with this.” He hopes to be able to expand the “Giveaway Corner” in the future. “The space we have now is very tight.” It gives me satisfaction when I am doing something meaningful.
