About Us
Volkan VolkanikMan Aykaç & Dr. Timo Siepmann
History:
Our charitable organisation is a project of Medici Pro Humanitate (Doctors for Humanity) and the student council of Charité Medical University. It was founded as the successor of the aid projects INADEM (2006) and CHAR-REGGAE-ITY (2007) by the physicians Volkan Aykaç and Dr. med. Timo Siepmann in 2006 (at that time medical students) and proudly looks back to 4 successful years of performing intercultural charity concerts. The earnings of our charity performances (17263 €) are distributed to our well-chosen partner organisations, such as German Doctors for Developing Countries and United for Africa. This proofs to be an effective concept to help people who really need help. Additionally we see it as our job to support the intercultural dialogue.
In 2006 we got honoured as Berliner of the Day by Berliner Radio (Berliner Rundfunk), and in 2007 we were presented by Mayor of Berlin Klaus Wowereit as honourable supporters of intercultural dialogue at the prize giving ceremony Berliner Tulip (Berliner Tulpe).
Our intention is to set a sign for peace, love and against war, racism, discrimination and homophobia!
Nevertheless, new ideas and projects are constantly developing. Former projects and staff are listed below.
