Stichting Figulus Welzijn Aalten-dinxperlo

What Stichting Figulus Welzijn Aalten-dinxperlo does

Stichting Figulus Welzijn Aalten-dinxperlo is a Dutch non-profit foundation (Stichting) registered as an ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling, or public-benefit institution) that delivers community welfare services to residents of the Aalten and Dinxperlo municipalities in the Achterhoek region of the Netherlands. Founded in 2011 and operating with 11-50 employees, the organization runs three physical service points — De Dam (Aalten), Kulturhus (Dinxperlo), and Ahof (Aalten) — with standard walk-in opening hours of 9:00-12:00. Its service portfolio spans meeting activities (Ontmoeting), volunteer coordination through the Vrijwilligers Service Punt (VSP), caregiver support (Mantelzorg), children and youth work, elderly support (Ouderenwerk), integration services for new Dutch citizens and refugees (Nieuwe Nederlanders), and a lending/rental division (Uitleen & Verhuur) covering medical aids, sports equipment, and toy libraries. The foundation also operates a petting zoo (Kinderboerderij) and an educational program sub-brand called De Academie.

The organization co-leads the cross-sector Plan Talent initiative — partnering with Gemeente Aalten, Careaz, Stichting Zorgcombinatie Marga Klompé, Estinea, primary schools, and Bariet — to coordinate talent development in sports, movement, art, and culture, and is part of the regional We(l)zijn Achterhoek collaboration with Welcom and Sociaal Werk Oude IJsselstreek. It additionally participates in the regional Uniek Sporten Uitleen program for adaptive sports equipment and the Meedoenpact Aalten initiative supporting low-income families.

The business model is that of a publicly funded welfare provider: revenue derives primarily from municipal contracts (notably with Gemeente Aalten) and public-sector grants routed through ANBI mechanisms, with services delivered free or at low cost to community members. There is no disclosed pricing for services. The technology stack is non-existent by design — operations are human-delivered through physical locations and community programs rather than software platforms, with social media (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok) used for outreach. The organization has no parent company, subsidiaries, M&A history, or external funding rounds.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Mezzo: The Dutch national association for informal caregivers (mantelzorgers). Directly comparable to Figulus Welzijn's Mantelzorg program at a national advocacy and support level; serves as an industry umbrella for caregiver-support service delivery models.
• VluchtelingenWerk Nederland: The national Dutch organization for refugee and newcomer integration support. Figulus Welzijn's Nieuwe Nederlanders program delivers a localized version of the same mandate; comparable as a provider of refugee integration, language, and social-connection services, though VluchtelingenWerk operates nationally with a much larger footprint.
• Welzijn Nederland: The Dutch sector association for welfare organizations. Comparable as the broader industry body representing community welfare providers like Figulus Welzijn, providing benchmarking, advocacy, and standards relevant to municipal-contract welfare delivery.

Regional players

• Jantje Beton: A Dutch charity focused on children's play and outdoor activity. Comparable to Figulus Welzijn's youth and toy-library programming (Speelotheek De Blokkendoos, Ons Speelhuis), though Jantje Beton operates nationally with a fundraising-driven model rather than municipal contracts.

Direct peers

• Combiwel: An Amsterdam-based Dutch welfare foundation delivering community-based social services, youth work, and elderly support under municipal contracts. Comparable as a same-country, same-model community welfare operator with a broader geographic footprint than Figulus Welzijn.
• Uniek Sporten: The Dutch national platform for adaptive sports equipment lending for people with disabilities. Figulus Welzijn runs the regional Achterhoek branch (Uniek Sporten Uitleen Achterhoek); directly comparable as the umbrella program for one of Figulus Welzijn's specialized disability services.
• Sociaal Werk Oude IJsselstreek: A neighboring Dutch municipal welfare organization and the third partner in the We(l)zijn Achterhoek coalition with Figulus Welzijn. Comparable in scale, scope, and funding model (municipal contracts, ANBI status, community-based welfare delivery).
• Dynamo (Stichting Dynamo): A Dutch community welfare organization focused on youth, talent development, and community programs. Comparable in offering talent-development and youth services under the Dutch welfare framework, with a similar municipal-contract revenue model.
• Stichting Welcom: A Dutch regional welfare foundation operating in the Achterhoek area and a core partner of Figulus Welzijn within the We(l)zijn Achterhoek collaboration. Directly comparable as a community welfare stichting delivering overlapping services (youth, elderly, volunteer coordination) under the same Dutch welfare framework.

Emerging players

• Stichting Leergeld: A Dutch national foundation supporting children from low-income families to participate in social, cultural, and educational activities. Comparable to Figulus Welzijn's Meedoenpact-related poverty alleviation work, though operating at national scale versus Figulus's local focus.
