TIC is a non-profit organisation which aims to help internationals feel more at home in the Netherlands by organising social and educational activities for internationals in Brabant, representing the international community to local governmental bodies, and connecting people of different nationalities.
In order to help build a community of expats, we put on various social and educational activities. This costs money, especially since we don't have a venue and need to rent out spaces for our activities. To fund this, we ask members to pay dues and also pay for the events, but any funding enables us to subsidize events and encourage more people to join, thus building community and helping expats feel at home.
