The Board
Timm Fries
Chairman of the Board
“My motivation stems from the successes we see in therapy. It is deeply fulfilling to experience these small miracles and to contribute in small ways to improve the extremely difficult living conditions of the families. Volunteer work has always been part of my life. Throughout my professional life, I have continuously been involved with social activities, among others in the German School in Sao Paolo, Brazil. At present, I am part of the Board of a horse-riding club.”
Philippe Piscol
Member of the Board
“I was active before on the Board of “delfine therapieren menschen“ and now I am very happy to be back and to be part of this remarkable and dedicated organization. Together we can do so much and give families a true perspective.”
Olaf Wietzke
Member of the Board
“In my life so far, I have almost always been lucky. I was able to grow up healthy and protected and have mostly had good things come to me. At “delfine therapieren menschen“, I would like to give back some of the good I have experienced and to help ease the hardships a little. Again and again I am touched by the fate of children and families – my commitment comes from the heart.”
