Personnel Overview

Marianne Spoelstra - Corporate Account Manager Cordaid
My dream has always been helping children in underdeveloped countries. So far I never actively did something about it (the last 8 years I worked for the Coca-Cola company). Until someone touched my heart! As Coca-Cola manager I participated in the expedition to Antarctica in 2005, led by expeditioner Robert Swan. At that moment I knew, now is my time for change.
