The Alphen Youth Participation Fund contributes to cultural and sports activities for children aged 4 to 18 from families with a limited budget. How do you register your child with a club, association or cultural institution via the JDFA? Read our rules or our step-by-step plan below.

This is how the JDFA works

Step 1: Contact an intermediary

For example, a teacher at school, the Serviceplein of the municipality of Alphen aan den Rijn, Participe, Tomindebuurt, a neighbourhood contact person, or a sports neighbourhood worker.

Step 2: Application

Let them know which cultural or sports activity your child would like to do. They will then submit an application to the JDFA on your behalf. You cannot do this yourself.

Step 3: Assessment

A JDFA consultant will review the application. If approved, they will inform the relevant club of your child’s name.

Step 4: Register your child

All you need to do now is register your child. We will pay the contribution directly to the participating club, association or cultural institution.
