Euthanasia group in the Netherlands has 111,000 members

Description: [of the article from the World right-to-die news list]

This report, by Leo Enthoven, appeared in Relevant, the magazine of Right to Die-NL (NVVE). Here is an excerpt from the online summary by Corry den Ouden-Smit:

Director Petra de Jong told the General Members Meeting, on the 24e April, that early this year the 111,000th member has been checked in. The Association has been active to the outside world since the memorial ‘Perspectives on Dignified Dying’ (2008). The Week of the Completed Life gave rise to a lot of publicity and increase of the membership, as did the web page about the medication for life's end.

The finances are more than healthy, thanks to the growth of the membership and to a restricted financial policy, through which the financial crisis did not influence the NVVE.
