Suggest a project

You can contact us if you would like us to suggest a project. If you are not linked to a community organisation to make this happen as yet, maybe we can!

NOTE: only the organization itself however can register the project online with us and only it would be the beneficiary of any funding from the Oranje Fonds. Organizations that act as volunteers themselves are not eligible for financial assistance.

Participate as a group

Participate with your class, company, family or other group:

SXM DOET is the opportunity 'par excellence' to demonstrate your group's commitment to a better and more liveable society. Take on an engaging project with all your colleagues, friends, or teammates. It is a great alternative to traditional team building events or company excursions. Naturally, schools (whether its just one class or all the entire student population) are encouraged to participate in SXM DOET too.

We also partner with community-minded companies that want to offer their products or services for free, sponsor materials or provide lunch.

Participate as an individual

Join in with friends or family

You don't have to be a part of a specific group to participate in SXM DOET. You can join a project alone - it is a great way to meet new friends of build your network. There is no shortage of suitable projects for you (or your group). Beach clean-ups, or sanitizing toys at the local day care are just two of the endless possibilities. The island is full of potential projects and is always in need of volunteers. Find an exciting project and sign up!
