Stichting Momenz Welzijn En Zorg

What Stichting Momenz Welzijn En Zorg does

Stichting Momenz Welzijn En Zorg ("MOmenz") is a nonprofit foundation (Stichting) designated as the primary municipal welfare organization for the municipality of Stichtse Vecht in the province of Utrecht, Netherlands. Originally founded in 2015 as Stichting Welzijn Stichtse Vecht under the Dutch Social Support Act (Wet maatschappelijke ondersteuning, Wmo), the organization rebranded to MOmenz on January 27, 2023. It delivers information, advice, and practical support across five thematic "Wijzer" (Guide) product lines — Wijzer in Gezondheid (health), Wijzer in Eigen Huis (independent living), Wijzer in Mantelzorgen (caregiving), Wijzer in Nederland (newcomer integration), and Wijzer in Vrijwillige Inzet (volunteer coordination) — supplemented by specialized sub-services including Welzijn op Recept (a GP-referral welfare pathway), Valpreventie (fall prevention), meal delivery via Vers aan Tafel, household assistance (De Wachtkracht), transportation, and the Taalcafé language-practice program. Service delivery is anchored in the proprietary Takenpuzzel Methode, a structured interview framework that translates support needs into concrete daily-life tasks across self-capability, network support, and professional care layers, supported by the Sterkerik-app.

The organization operates with 33 paid staff and a network of 323 trained volunteers delivering services across 14 villages and towns in Stichtse Vecht, with offices in Maarssenbroek and Breukelen following a late-2024 relocation. It maintains ANBI (public benefit) status, is registered with the KvK under number 30225594, and is governed by a Raad van Toezicht (Supervisory Board) chaired by Annelies Kienhuis, with Dennis Duiker serving as Directeur-Bestuurder.

The revenue model is dominated by a recurring municipal subsidy from Gemeente Stichtse Vecht under the Wmo, supplemented by project-based grants (Ukrainian refugee support, language programs, fall prevention) and minimal cost-recovery client contributions — meals at unit prices, transportation at €0.50/km, and handyman services at €5/hour (capped at €15). Most services are provided free to residents. The go-to-market operates through three reinforcing motions: community-led outreach via embedded neighborhood presence, direct-to-consumer self-referral through the Wijzer programs, and event-driven engagement through information meetings, language cafés, and an annual volunteer day. Customer acquisition is substantially referral-driven, with GPs and district nurses routing patients through the VIPLive referral system, libraries providing language-program venues and intake, and municipal communications channeling preventive home-visit invitations to residents aged 75+.

Others
