Frequently asked questions
JOINING OUR EVENTS & WORKSHOPS
Are all your events in-person?
How often do you have events?
We don’t host regular events and workshops, instead we organise one-off big multi-day campaigns that contain lots of smaller events within them. These depend on the year but we try hard to bring them to life whenever we can!
To keep updated with our upcoming events, check our events page or follow our Instagram.
Who can go to your events?
Anyone and everyone who shares our values and wants to work against greed to protect our environment. We want to see as many of you there!
What is the purpose of your events?
Two simple things:
- Bring like minded people together to create a strong community of change
- Educate on climate change through arts and culture
RECEIVING EMAILS FROM US
How can I unsubscribe from the mailing list?
At the bottom of our emails there’ll always be a clear unsubscribe button.
How often will I receive emails?
We only send emails when we have important updates such as upcoming campaign events or if we’re one step closer to our goals. You’ll never receive regular spam-like emails containing irrelevant information about us.
I’m not from the Netherlands, can I still join the mailing list?
Most definitely! We encourage everyone to sign up and stay in touch.
Do you share my email with third parties?
Not at all. We can guarantee that your email will stay within our organisation and we’ll never use it for anything but sending you emails.
What language will the emails be sent in?
English. Although we’re a Dutch-based non-profit, we want everyone from all over the world to get involved.
How do I report technical issues with receiving emails?
Can I submit feedback or suggestions for improving your email communications?<br />
We always love hearing feedback and suggestions, it’s what makes us better. Drop us an email at gramsterdamsocial@gmail.com.
VOLUNTEERING WITH US
I’m not from the Netherlands, can I still volunteer?
Yes please, we need all the help we can get! We’ve had volunteers from all over the world and apart from a few differences in time zones, there’s no reason not to get involved.
What kind of things can I help out with?
We want a network of people with specialisms and insights from all different areas. Whether you want to develop a skill through volunteering or have years of knowledge in a field, we’d love for you to join us.
We purposely avoid using job like recruiting methods like stating roles we need, instead opting to use a submission form where you can input exactly what you want to help with.
How much time will volunteering take out of my week?
The amount of time and work you contribute is up to you completely.
Are there specific skills or qualifications required to volunteer?
Nope. Whatever skills, qualifications, or contacts you have, we want you to volunteer with us.
Have a question that you don’t see the answer to here? Email us and we’ll get back to you within 2 working days.
