Help your neighbours with a hot meal and warm contact

PLUS cares for good food, for the neighbourhood and for each other. In the form of good and responsible products, fine service and by supporting local initiatives, such as the Thuisgekookt Foundation. Because PLUS believes that good food should be possible for everyone all year round.

A fresh meal on the table every day and pleasant social contact: it's not a given for everyone. With your donation, you help connect people like Gerard to a volunteer home cook from the neighborhood, who provides a fresh warm meal and companionship weekly. Your contribution leads to less loneliness and better health in the neighborhood. Help out and donate!

  • The Thuisgekookt Foundation
  • Help your neighbours with a hot meal and warm contact

Your donation is urgently needed because:

  • 450,000 Dutch people have no access to healthy food*
  • 46% of Dutch people feel lonely**
*Resource: Voedselnood in Nederland, Ipsos I&O, 2024.**Resource: De gezichten van eenzaamheid, Ipsos I&O, 2024.

With your contribution, you help make this possible:

  • A healthy fresh meal for someone who can't afford it
  • Pleasant contact with a kind neighbor for someone who needs it
  • A healthier and less lonely neighborhood

Together we make healthy food and social contact accessible to everyone.

quoteThe people from a regular meal service only deliver the food. But with my home cook Lianne, I sometimes chat for an hour or play a game of Rummikub. That makes every week much more enjoyable. Plus, the food is very fresh and always delicious.
