Municipality launches 'Don’t Leave Money Behind' campaign during Money Week
During Money Week (23–27 March), the municipality of Uithoorn is launching a campaign to help residents who are struggling financially. Many people are unaware that there are schemes that could provide them with additional support.
This week, the municipality is therefore drawing extra attention to the campaign. For more information, visit laatgeengeldliggen. Here, residents can find an overview of all income-related schemes they may be eligible for. These include contributions for sports, education, healthcare or activities for children and adults. The municipality has noticed that not everyone is aware of these schemes. As a result, some residents are missing out on money they are entitled to.
Campaign objectives
The aim of the campaign is to reach more residents with tight budgets, increase the use of income-related schemes, raise awareness of the schemes on laatgeengeldliggen and provide clear, accessible information about what is available. Alderman José de Robles: “We hope this campaign will help us reach even more people so that no one misses out on money or assistance they are entitled to.”
