Stichting Welzijn Hattem

What Stichting Welzijn Hattem does

Stichting Welzijn Hattem (SWH, SWHattem) is a Dutch non-profit foundation (Stichting) that delivers preventive welfare and informal-care support services to all residents of the municipality of Hattem, Netherlands — a town of approximately 12,000–13,000 inhabitants. The organization is small by design: a part-time team of roughly 8 people (a director, one finance staff member, four welfare workers, and two youth workers) delivers services across four branded program pillars — Hattem Samen (community wellbeing including Welzijn op Recept, Mantelzorg, Geheugensteunpunt, Steunouder, and Op Ko€rs), Hattem Actief (sports, exercise, and social activation), Hattem Young (youth center The Hangout and street-based youth work), and HattemDoet (volunteer matching and the Vrijwilligersacademie) — under the umbrella SPOOR Hattem initiative. It also operates the Geheugensteunpunt (memory support point), a personal-alarm subscription service (Personenalarmering, €33.95/month), and the digitale Sociale Kaart (Zorg in Beeld) directory.

The underlying technology footprint is minimal: services are delivered primarily through physical walk-in consultation at MFC De Marke (HQ, Daendelsweg 2, Hattem) and partner community locations (Zoethout, Het Baken, De Hoenwaard, De Open Poort, Emmaüskerk), supported by a WordPress-based website (swhattem.nl), Facebook and Instagram accounts, a printed/digital monthly activity guide (SPOORboekje) in local newspaper De Hattemer, and anonymized case-study storytelling. No proprietary software, AI/ML systems, APIs, or SDKs are in use; tools such as BordjeVol (caregiver-task mapping cards) and the Positieve Gezondheid spider-web are methodology artifacts rather than software products.

The business model is subsidy-driven: Stichting Welzijn Hattem holds ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling) status with RSIN 4235964 since January 1, 2018, and is funded primarily through contracts and subsidies from Gemeente Hattem and co-funded initiatives such as Welzijn op Recept (with GPs and physiotherapists) and Steunouder (with CJG Hattem). End-user pricing is symbolic or free — Personenalarmering at €33.95/month plus a €140 connection fee, klaverjassen at €1/session, biljart at €18/month, and a voluntary €2 coffee contribution for the walking challenge — so virtually all revenue is pass-through public funding. Customer acquisition is community-led and referral-based rather than commercial: residents arrive via word-of-mouth, healthcare-professional referrals (Welzijn op Recept), or direct walk-ins, and the organization serves the entire municipal population with no commercial sales motion.
