About us

---

Every family has a different story, click below to read about ours.

We believe through our humanitarian work and by building and supporting our community and that of others, that like our son Iggy's– stories can change.

A Different Story is non-profit organisation established in 2022 in Amsterdam with a vision to create a community that blurs divisions, spreads empathy, and values difference in people. A community that has accessible space to create, to express, and to grow, but also offers tangible and needed support to those in need. Through our work we focus, in particular, on marginalised and vulnerable children living with disabilities and rare diseases (RDs) and their families, aiming to improve their quality of life – both in the Netherlands and abroad. 

We facilitate a public and inclusive community space in the center of Amsterdam, where support groups, information evenings, benefits, creative classes and exhibitions are held. Are you interested in using this space?
