Homeless shelter the Stoelenproject
Welcome
The Stoelenproject is the most accessible evening and night care in Amsterdam. The reception is strict, but safe, warm and free. Every evening and night 50 homeless people stay in our shelter on the Marnixstraat. From September 15 to April 30, we have accomodated 10,000 overnight stays with 75 volunteers every season since 1989.
Volunteers
Have you always wanted to do something for homeless people? And are you available two nights a month? For nightcare the Stoelenproject is looking for new volunteers.
Visitors
The Stoelenproject is a very basic provider. We offer a safe and warm environment with mattresses to sleep on, soup and bread in the evening or sometimes a meal, sandwiches in the morning, coffee and tea and washing facilities.
DONATE TO THE STOELEN PROJECT
The Municipality of Amsterdam is our main sponsor. We are also dependent on donations and legacies, for example for our mattresses, maintenace to the building or other new initiatives. The Stoelenproject is an ANBI foundation.
