Dear Friend,
Thanks to your support, Hidden Girls continues to grow and reach more girls and young women living in protected shelters across the Netherlands.
Today, the program is active in 11 shelter locations, where participants take part in weekly trauma-sensitive dance and kickboxing sessions. Over the past year, we delivered nearly 500 workshops and reached more than 105 girls and young women who have experienced domestic violence, abuse, exploitation or other forms of severe insecurity.
For many participants, Hidden Girls has become a positive and stable moment in their week. Through movement, they build confidence, connect with others and experience moments of freedom, joy and belonging.
The impact of the program is best captured in our new documentary, which follows the stories behind Hidden Girls and gives a glimpse into the safe spaces our coaches create every week.

As demand for the program continues to grow, we remain committed to reaching even more girls who can benefit from movement, connection and trauma-sensitive support.
Thank you for helping us create spaces where girls can rediscover their strength and look forward to the future with confidence.
With gratitude,
