Programs for People with Low Incomes

What is it?

If you have a low income, it can be difficult to make ends meet. In that case, the municipality can help you with a subsidy or reimbursement for, for example:

  • a refrigerator or washing machine
  • shipping costs
  • sports or other activities for your child(ren)

To do so, please contact the Work and Income Department of the Municipality of Leidschendam-Voorburg by calling 14070 and selecting option 2.

What should I do?

  • You must submit a request to the municipality.
  • Be sure to ask about the options for group health insurance, municipal tax exemptions, or individual income supplements.
