My grandson, Kiano, had an amazing and unforgettable day #Een dag niet ziek, he thought it was so cool and incredibly fun, yet over too soon. We as grandparents, family and friends enjoyed him having this day with all his limitations he always smiles, our superhero . Match Maastricht, thank you for this.

I really liked the concept of Match because it gives students the opportunity to genuinely give back to the people in the city where they can live.

If there are 2 things I have learned from my experience in the Match Houses project, it would be these. 1. Even if your project sounds crazy, as long as you truly believe in it, so will others. 2. Everybody is always in some way looking for social contacts. So don’t be scared to dare interacting more with others

For me, guiding the students is a nice change from my daily work. I also find it great to see that I can really help these students a step forward with the guidance.

By participating in Match you grow personally and you are constantly challenged to connect people from different backgrounds.

Looking back at my year at Match, I find it very special that I got to know so many people that I would otherwise never have had the chance to meet.
