In 2026, The Chesterfield Brand is donating €25,000 to Stichting Leergeld Noord Drenthe for school supply passes. For the second year in a row, this means we are covering the majority of the costs. With these passes, children from families facing financial difficulties can buy the school supplies they need.
A notebook, pens or other school supplies: for families with money worries, these purchases can be a significant expense. A school supply pass helps lower that financial barrier, so children can take part in school well prepared.
In 2026, Stichting Leergeld Noord Drenthe provided more than €30,000 worth of school supply passes to children registered with the foundation. With our donation of €25,000, we are covering the majority of these costs. In this way, we support the foundation in its work helping children and families in our region.
Stichting Leergeld Noord Drenthe is a volunteer organisation dedicated to children aged 0 to 18 from families facing financial difficulties. The foundation helps children take part in activities in and outside school that are not a given because of their financial circumstances.
Support can take the form of school supplies, music lessons or a sports club membership. This gives children the chance to learn, develop their talents and join in with their peers.
The foundation's mission matches the purpose of our contribution: every child deserves the chance to join in.
As a company based in Assen, we feel connected to our community. By supporting Stichting Leergeld Noord Drenthe, we contribute to practical help close to home.
This is the second year in a row that we are supporting the school supply passes. We are pleased to be able to contribute again and would like to thank the foundation's volunteers for their dedication to children and families in Noord-Drenthe.
With financial support, Stichting Leergeld Noord Drenthe can continue its work. Would you like to contribute as a business or individual? Visit the Help mee page (in Dutch) or get in touch via info@leergeldnoorddrenthe.nl.
