Make a difference – and grow along the way.

MDT YourCube is a Community Service programme that gives young people the opportunity to contribute to their city while discovering their talents and developing new skills.

As a volunteer, you will support people and communities in The Hague who could use some extra help, attention, or connection. You might volunteer in a nursing home, help at a community kitchen, support local residents, work with children, or contribute to another social initiative that matches your interests and talents.

You don’t need to know exactly what you want to do. Together, we will look for a volunteer opportunity that fits your interests, talents, and availability.
