VWC-BUUV is part of VanHier Haarlem. VanHier Haarlem is there for all Haarlemmers who can use or want to give help. Our services remain the same because VWC-BUUV is still the place in Haarlem and the surrounding area for volunteer work and neighborly assistance! Together we make Haarlem a healthy and pleasant city to live and work in. With prevention, own initiatives, accessible care and support in every neighborhood. Together we make people, neighborhoods and cities stronger.
