Everyone participates\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Platform C believes it is important that everyone can participate in art and culture, including people with a small wallet. Do you live in Amstelveen and have a low income? Then the municipality can help you. On www.amstelveen.nl\/minima<\/a> you can read about eligibility for each scheme and how to apply.<\/p>\n

We list the options for taking classes and courses at Platform C for you:<\/p>\n

For children 4 to 18 years old<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Do you have little money? And do you have one or more children between the ages of 4 and 18? Then you may be able to get an allowance for expenses you incur for your child\/children. You can use this to (partially) pay for cultural activities, such as music and dance lessons or drawing lessons. You will receive \u20ac 375 per twelve months per child.<\/p>\n

How does it work?
\n<\/em>If you want to use the schemes for children aged 4 to 18, you can fill out an application form. The application form will tell you what information the municipality needs from you. Here you can find more information and the form<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can drop off the application form along with the required documents at the Amstelveenloket (make an appointment before stopping by) or send it to:
\nMunicipality of Amstelveen

Youth Fund Sports & Culture for children up to age 17<\/strong><\/p>\n

If for some reason the sports\/culture allowance through the municipality cannot be used, an application can be made to the Youth Fund Sport & Culture. This applies to all cultural activities. The Youth Fund Sport & Culture is also there for self-employed people with too few assignments or for families with debts. The fund pays the membership fee or tuition and any necessary equipment such as the rental of an instrument.
\nNote: in Amstelveen, the regulation of the municipality of Amstelveen is the underlying provision. Check first whether you are eligible for a sport\/culture allowance. The municipality also has other minimum schemes for children and their parents.<\/p>\n

How does it work?
\n<\/em>Parents cannot apply themselves. This requires an intermediary (intermediary). An intermediary is someone who is professionally involved with the family. Every professional working in education, assistance, welfare or health care is a potential intermediary. For example, a teacher, social worker or community sports coach. Every school has an intermediary. You can contact them and submit your request.<\/p>\n
