Stichting AntiPesto

What Stichting AntiPesto does

Stichting AntiPesto is a Dutch nonprofit foundation (Stichting) headquartered in Vlaardingen, Netherlands, that functions as both an advice and reporting point (meldpunt) for bullying cases and an active intervention organization for vulnerable youth and young adults aged approximately 10-25. The foundation delivers its services through a portfolio of distinct programs: Storytellers (a film initiative producing social-issue stories to build resilience), Musicacademy/mprov (music-based creative expression), Radiculous (an interactive anti-discrimination board game), Young Leaders (a role-model development platform), De Verbeeldingsfabriek (a creative workshop for ages 10-16), and Dagbesteding (structured day activities including the Level Up Vlaardingen program).

Its underlying technology and methodology is described as a youth empowerment framework combining creative projects with anti-bullying interventions and coaching, supported by situation-specific (maatwerk) interventions for social challenges — there is no proprietary software, AI, or platform layer; service delivery is grounded in practitioner-led workshops, events, and one-on-one coaching.

The business model is that of a Dutch Stichting (foundation) — a nonprofit legal entity with no publicly disclosed revenue, pricing, or funding rounds. Distribution is regional and direct: services are accessed via the organization's contact form (for bullying reports, volunteering, activity participation, and partnership inquiries), through its Vlaardingen hub at Abel Tasmanlaan 78A, and via organic social channels (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok). Customer segments span vulnerable youth, schools and educational organizations, and families/parents, with named ecosystem partners including LKCA, Kroepoekfabriek, Sociaal Domein, and Fymeso.
