Buddy's for teenage girls wanted

Like YOU is a buddy project for and by young women in Utrecht. Our goal is to connect and empower young women. We want to achieve this by sharing real, raw and honest stories online and offline in which we can recognize ourselves and others.

For our project 'Like YOU' we are looking for female volunteers; 'YOU women'.

'YOU' stands for: Yourself, Inspiring and Young.

Yourself

In an online story, a YOU woman honestly shares a slice of her life. We also expect that openness and vulnerability from the YOU woman in the possible contact that follows with a teenage girl. The YOU woman will find a good balance in sharing her own story and listening and discovering the teen's story. 'Being yourself' is crucial in 'Like YOU'.

Inspirational

We believe that as a woman you are not inspiring with a strong story or with a life to envy. Inspiring women are honest, listen, encourage and pay attention to others. The YOU woman thinks this is very important and likes to put others around her at ease.

Young

The YOU women sharing their story on the website are all young. Between 21 and 35. Although the age difference with a teenage girl may not be huge, it may well be that both women live in completely different worlds. The YOU woman is 'open minded' and does not judge. She is open to the world of others and has genuine interest.

Are you the YOU woman we are looking for? Then contact us!
