The Krajicek Foundation motivates Dutch youth in deprived urban areas to exercise regularly, and to develop a healthy lifestyle. Children who frequently play and sport are happier, healthier and learn to develop their talents.We all have been young. Played outside. And remember the fun: making new friends, being active, and discovering new things. It might seem ordinary, but for more than 400,000 children in the Netherlands it's all but ordinary.On Krajicek Playgrounds (multisport courts) children from deprived urban areas have a socially safe place, close to home, where they can play and sport carefree. They are being guided by youngsters from their own neighbourhood, our Krajicek Scholars.These are young adults who in exchange for a scholarship organise activities on their Playground. In addition, Krajicek Scholars attend workshops and sport clinics to further develop their abilities.Through our extensive collaboration with municipalities, community coaches and local residents, over 5,000 children play daily on 125 Krajicek Playgrounds throughout the Netherlands, and are guided by more than 200 Krajicek Scholars.Please join us in creating a happy, healthy and active society by supporting the Krajicek Foundation.
