The role of our members
Our members are the driving force behind the scene of Brainport voor Elkaar. Without their active contribution, we cannot achieve our goals. We ask them not only to contribute financially, but also to invest time and knowledge in developing and implementing pilots and solutions. Members thus contribute in three ways besides financially:
- First, by actively dedicating themselves to the well-being of their employees, students, pupils, residents and their families. Brainport voor Elkaar members stand for social employership and do so partly by participating in Brainport voor Elkaar programmes.
- Secondly, by giving their employees time to participate in social initiatives and programmes.
- Finally, by sharing technological and social expertise with other members.
