| On September 5, 2019, Queen Maxima attended celebrations of the 40th anniversary of De Kindertelefoon (Child helpline) in Utrecht. The Kindertelefoon was founded in 1979 as a local initiative by parents in Amsterdam city. Today, more than five hundred trained volunteers work at seven locations in the Netherlands. Every day an average of a thousand conversations are conducted via telephone or chat with children. (Queen Maxima wore a new leaf print tweed half sleeve dress by Carolina Herrera.) |
