EFDN WELCOMES FC EMMEN TO THE NETWORK
The EFDN welcomes Eredivisie team, FC Emmen and it’s foundation Naoberschap United in joining the network. FC Emmen is now the 8th club from the Netherlands within the EDFN.
FC Emmen and Naoberschap United Foundation
Naoberschap United was established by FC Emmen in 2018. Through the foundation, local businesses can use the network and fame of FC Emmen for their own corporate social responsibility (CSR). It offers a unity for entrepreneurs who want to contribute to the community regularly, instead of only every once in a while, and it gives companies and NGO’s the opportunity to work together for the community, instead of alone.
FC Emmen wants to be more than just a football club and firmly believes that each of us can make a difference but together we can make a change. The plan for Naoberschap United is to utilise the special position that the club has in the local community to create opportunities of the local, professional football organisation and the impact of football can have in raising awareness of CSR-projects. Projects that help others and bring a smile to someone’s face.
Responsibility in a changing world
Naoberschap United aims to reinstate the old values of the local community through the many possibilities FC Emmen and its fans can offer. After all, a football club’s network is huge. Football players, volunteers, employees and board members have to act as role models and FC Emmen feel that they have a responsibility in the current ever-changing world.
