Our new member wants to grow its international network, collaborate and participate in Pan-European projects and promote the development of the competencies of its staff while sharing knowledge and experiences from delivering community projects for more than 15 years.
FC Twente is a football club from the east of the Netherlands whose club policy is based on three pillars: Pride, Ambition and Solidarity. Solidarity lies at the core of how FC Twente converts social involvement into actionable steps. With active participation, FC Twente Foundation aims at omptimising the current operations in a continous process. To achieve this, it’s important that the foundation maintains its creative and unique approach. Thereby ensuring that the combined efforts are aligned to create the maximum impact in the region to reach the goal to further improve the daily lives of people who have had a setback in life and are in need of support – that’s what Twente is all about.
