Oma’s Soep foundation
The goal of the foundation is to increase social involvement of elderly people and to promote social cohesion in neighborhoods. The legal form social enterprise does not (yet) exist in the Netherlands. Therefore Oma’s Soep exists of two connected parts, a private company and a foundation.
The foundation finances the cooking days. This means the cooking days are free to join for the elderly and the volunteers. To realize this, the foundation is currently supported by several funds. However, we aim to be self-supporting within a couple of years. The foundation will then be fully supported by our private company’s profit.
