Centipede Annette
Introduce:
I am Annette Schild, 56 years old, living in the Vijfhoek in Haarlem, mother of a 19 year old son.
What do you do for volunteer work?
I am a volunteer coordinator at the Haarlemmer Kweektuin. The number of hours is very different. In addition to my regular work, we meet every month with the other coordinators.
Why are you doing this job?
It gives me satisfaction because I can develop my talents. I enjoy being part of a team. And I am proud that I work at the Haarlemmer Kweektuin, it is a very nice and important place in Haarlem where beautiful things happen. By the way, we are still looking for a few volunteers for different functions, who will be my new colleague?
Do you do any other volunteer work?

I am a coach at the ADB, board member and volunteer coordinator at the Badhuis, public service employee at the Schuur, rental theater de Liefde, production assistant at the Pletterij, receptionist at the Trionk, ambassador of Spaarnelanden, shop assistant at Terres des Hommes and moderator at the depression association.
Matcher Marion
Matcher Marion Introduce: Hi, may I introduce myself, how nice is that! I am Marjon, 45 years old and live in Haarlem. I work 6 hours a week for VWC-BUUV. On Monday morning I run the BUUV service, in which I try to match the requester for help and the help provider. On Wednesday morning I do the back office, then I clean up the back of the website. I am more than happy to be able to help others through my work at BUUV. I know what it's like when you can't do something yourself due to limitations. I have a movement disorder, so I live with a difficult body. Being able to help others at BUUV gives me a certain satisfaction. I do it with a lot of love and pleasure. I love animals very much, especially my cat Loes. I love nature and photography. Nature brings me peace, but I also continue to marvel at its beauty and resilience. I also like fun, laughing and connecting with someone else. I also regularly meditate, sing mantras, read books and love to cook and bake vegan. I never get bored!
