In Kinderdijk, over 250 volunteers do an outstanding job every single day. Voluntary millers, hosts and hostesses, guides, cashiers, skippers, maintenance and shop volunteers; all local people, with regional knowledge. They are the backbone of this World Heritage. We are as proud of them as they are of Kinderdijk.
Kinderdijk World Heritage Foundation is a true volunteer organization. Our more than 200 dedicated volunteers find it wonderful to support Kinderdijk in every way possible. Our volunteers thoroughly enjoy guiding, informing, and connecting with people from all over the world.
Apart from their daily duties, our volunteers are also very much involved behind the scenes of Kinderdijk World Heritage. Their qualities are put to good use in all sorts of fields. They advise our organisation on aspects such as training, strategy and much more besides. Our Volunteer Policy was devised in close cooperation with them. Once every three years, our volunteers choose a Volunteer Council from their midst.
