We Have 18 Blue Choice Cards!

And of course we will not keep them. These 15 euro charged cards will go to clients of Voedselbank Zwolle so that people requiring financial assistance can get extra groceries at Jumbo supermarkets.

On the 24th of May we will give them to the Voedselbank so that the first 18 people can use them. Another card is coming soon, funded by our teacher. Do you want to contribute too?
That is possible by donating money to this bank account:

NL56 INGB 0001 4861 19 t.n.v. Voedselbank Zwolle e.o. with the description 'Blue Choice Card'.

Every 15 euros makes one card, with a small donation you can have a big impact.

We want to thank everybody who has contributed so far, whether in form of donation, or extremely generous participation.

Meet our first contributor: Social Club Zwolle ☺️
As part of the 17000 member-strong Suver Nuver Stichting, the Social Club aims to provide information and promote the use of cannabis oil for medical purposes.
Cannabis oil is still considered illegal in the Netherlands, although thousands of people already rely on the medical benefits to treat sleeping disorder, pain, epilepsy and many more.
The volunteers at Social Club Zwolle welcome everyone who would like to get further information on cannabis oil and its different medical applications Mondays and Tuesdays from 14:00 to 17:00 at Thorbeckgracht 50.

Good morning everyone,

last thursday we went to the city to personally hand out donation letters to local shops and neighborhood centers. We printed another 100 to distribute soon.
No matter how small or big, every donation counts and is appreciated! 100% of the contributions get put on the cards directly.

You can contribute to NL56 INGB 0001 4861 19 t.n.v. Voedselbank Zwolle e.o. with the description 'Blue Choice Card'.

Why the Blue Choice Card?

The Voedselbank helps people living under the poverty line. Their customers can go to a designated area to get a pre-filled box of donated ingredients. While this is a good system, people do not have choice in the food they get and cannot go to the grocery store.

The Blue Choice Card offers:

- Free choice
The cards are gift cards that can be used at a supermarket where other products not included in the food package can be bought

- Less shame
Often people feel ashamed admitting they need help because there is a huge stigma around it. The Blue Choice Card, however, is discreet and includes people in the general food supply system.

-Self-sufficiency
Card holders can buy their groceries themselves which gives them a feeling of self-achievement

Good morning,
after a great meeting yesterday, we present to you one of our main partners: the Voedselbank Zwolle
The first Dutch Voedselbank started distributing food packages in 2002. To this day, the Voedselbank counts 100.000 beneficiaries of whom 40% are below 18 years of age.
Throughout the country, 10.500 voluntary workers assure that the packages are ready and handed out in time (just like Frits, the happy face at the center of our selfie 😉) does every day in Zwolle.
Thank you to all of them for their tireless efforts and we are very much looking forward to this partnership! 😊

Blue Choice Card

We are “New Ways”, a project team of students from Windesheim Honours College. Together with our client, Zwolle17GlobalGoals, we target the successfull implementation of the United Nation’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals, more specifically Goal 1 (reducing poverty) and Goal 10 (reducing inequality).

In order to reduce poverty and inequality in the city of Zwolle, our team came up with the Blue Choice Card. It is an alternative food supply system for people living underneath the poverty line. We gather donations and distribute those on supermarket gift cards, which will be given to the clients of the Voedselbank Zwolle. Thereby, the Blue Choice Card gives every beneficiary a broader and more inclusive choice of food.

Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any question about us or the project or if you wish to contribute to it!
