Volunteer Medal Awarded to Five Distributors of Neighborhood Magazine De Corridor
Monday, March 30, 2026
On Saturday, March 28, five volunteers were awarded the volunteer medal by Alderman Van Dijk. They received this distinction during the annual volunteer evening of neighborhood magazine De Corridor, in recognition of their many years of dedication to the magazine in Brouwhuis.
Kees Strijbosch, Jeanette Voormolen-Gort, Alda Jenniskens-Hilgerson, and Brigitta Hendriks-Cantrijn have been distributing the neighborhood magazine for more than 25 years. Every month, they go out to distribute the magazine in their own part of the neighborhood, regardless of the weather conditions. They are known for their reliability and their willingness to step in for colleagues when needed.
Additionally, Twan Raaijmakers also received a volunteer medal. He has been active as a distributor for 35 years and has made a particularly valuable contribution to the foundation during this time. With his monthly efforts, he has covered an estimated 1,000 kilometers for the distribution of the weekly magazine.
With their many years of loyal dedication, the five distributors are of great value to the neighborhood magazine and the community. The board of the De Corridor Neighborhood Magazine Foundation is therefore proud that they have received this recognition.
