Donation
Besides sponsors the Shine Social Club Foundation is also looking for sponsors whom are willing to help us fulfil our mission to reduce loneliness amongs older adults. Companies and organisations can sponsor us by donating both time and other non-material things like their services, but also private people can volunteer. Because it is very expensive and time consuming to develop and program the Shine Social Club app and there is no income at all, Foundation Shine Social Club continuously seeks income via subsidies and donations.
Mission
The founders mission is very brief: they aim to reduce loneliness amongst older adults with Shine Social Club.

Foundation Shine Social Club
In the Netherlands there is no official legal entity for social enterprises and therefore Shine Social Club organisation consists of a limited company and a non-profit foundation. The main goal is to reduce loneliness under the demographic of older adults.
The development and marketing of the free app are fully financed by the foundation. The aim is to keep the access of the app free for the users at all times. To finance this operation the organisation fully relies on external funding like subsidies and donations. The aim is to be completely financially independent within three years.

The board members of the limited company do not receive any kind of remuneration for their activities either. The wish has been expressed to have the board members of the limited company to become employees of the company one day and receive salaries. Volunteers get remuneration for the expenses made.
