Our MissionInspired by God’s love for children, we support communities in protecting children and creating an environment in which they can thrive. We want to help children grow up in safe, healthy and flourishing communities, and offer them hope and opportunities for the future. What We SupportSince its establishment, JIP Foundation has supported projects in the Netherlands and in several countries around the world, with a particular focus on children, young people and vulnerable communities. Our projects have included: The Netherlands: youth work, public debate and combating human traffickingKenya: environmental education and school gardensLebanon: education for disadvantaged childrenIndia: combating human trafficking and youth work (hostel)Ethiopia: care and supportEgypt: youth workBangladesh: combating human traffickingHow We WorkJIP Foundation is a privately funded foundation. We do not operate an open application process. Instead, the Board identifies organisations and initiatives that align with our mission and invites them to submit a project proposal. We may support a project over several years, allowing us to build a meaningful relationship with the organisation and contribute to lasting impact. In addition, we provide one-off grants to projects that fit the Foundation’s objectives. https://jipfoundation.org/menu-mobile Thu, 07 Nov 2019 09:14:41 +0000 JIP Foundation - "He has anointed us to proclaim good news to the poor." https://jipfoundation.org/menu-mobile what drives us? board projects partners contact ︎ https://jipfoundation.org/projects Wed, 06 Nov 2019 14:49:24 +0000 JIP Foundation - "He has anointed us to proclaim good news to the poor." https://jipfoundation.org/projects Projects 2026 Port Reitz Special School <img width="1550" height="1371" width_o="1550" height_o="1371" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6f369aadde091a79ff7db099eba26939a834a5723e751661e46c03ae2a438d1c/Port-kinderen.jpg" data-mid="251460560" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6f369aadde091a79ff7db099eba26939a834a5723e751661e46c03ae2a438d1c/Port-kinderen.jpg" /> The school garden enables students to learn by doing.

Through its IMC on Tour programme, the organisation aims to give newcomer children a warm welcome and introduce them directly to Dutch society. IMC on Tour adapts the educational concept of Stichting IMC Weekendschool specifically for newcomer children and offers the programme after school hours at language schools. The programme is aimed at children aged 9 to 12. Approach Through IMC on Tour, children who have recently arrived in the Netherlands are introduced to Dutch society from the very beginning. The programme encourages their confidence and curiosity, helps them build a network, and gives them the knowledge and experience they need to pursue their ambitions. During the school year, the children explore around ten different professional fields outside regular school hours. Each week, an enthusiastic guest teacher visits the class to share insights into their profession and experiences. The year concludes with a Summer School during the first two weeks of the summer holidays. The children take part in a variety of enjoyable and educational activities focusing on nature, culture, sports and recreation. JIP’s contribution to the project With JIP Foundation’s contribution, IMC on Tour was able to continue its programme for the On Tour+ class in Amersfoort during the 2020–2021 school year. Through this support, JIP Foundation contributed directly to the children’s language development and social-emotional development, while helping them build stronger connections with Dutch society. ︎ ︎
