Our Team
We are motivated and full of empathy. With great passion, we dedicate ourselves to the good cause and strive to make the world a little better.
Vision
We envision a world where people from all backgrounds, religions, and social standings peacefully coexist with dignity, respecting and supporting one another. The 3 Musketiere will be part of a humanitarian network, collaborating with partners around the world. Always on equal footing, with love and dedication, and for the people.
Mission
Our mission is to provide needs-based emergency relief in crisis and disaster areas on-site. With every relief mission, we consider how education and development projects could be established. Our teams need to be well-prepared for this, which is why we offer suitable training courses ourselves.
Betül Tumak
Betül is one of the founding members of the 3 Musketiere.
She works full-time at a health insurance company and serves as the 2nd board member of the 3 Musketiere Reutlingen e.V. on a voluntary basis.
"The fact that millions of children have had to leave their homes and often experienced terrible things during their journey and in their home countries deeply touches me. The thought of a lost generation without a future drives me to take action, and I see it as my duty to help people who have had to flee from war, violence, and terror whenever I can."
Claudia Richter
Claudi is also one of our founding members, works as a nurse, and serves as our honorary treasurer.
"Even in my profession as a nurse, I see it as a passion to assist people in emergency situations and take care of them. Now we live in a country with excellent medical care. This is not something to be taken for granted. Millions of people have little to no access to medical care, and as a Musketeer, I try to fill that gap."
Pervin Aydar
We met Pervin in 2017 during our work in Izmir, for which we are very grateful.
Today, she is the heart and soul of KEP and works there as a project coordinator.
"We may not be able to change the world, but we can change our attitude towards what is happening around us. My sense of belonging towards other people motivates me to build an emerging world community and programmatic solutions for disadvantaged communities. Because I believe my life matters along with the lives of others."
Markus Brandstetter
Markus is a founding member, 1st chairman, and full-time CEO of the 3 Musketeers Reutlingen e.V..
"Following in the footsteps of Rupert Neudeck, the founder of 'Cap Anamur,' I have also committed myself to 'radical humanity.' I am fully aware of the great privilege of being born in a safe and prosperous country. I am also aware that our prosperity is often built on the backs of others. Therefore, I see it as my duty to extend a helping hand to vulnerable people and those in need."
Andriy Ledviy
Andy was among the first people we met at the beginning of our mission in Ukraine. We are not only extremely glad but also very grateful for this.
Andy has been working in our team as a project coordinator, managing both our warehouse and operations on the ground. Without his tireless dedication, we would likely find it challenging to carry out our project in Ukraine.
Erdem Türk
Erdem came to us for the first time in spring 2021 and shortly afterwards became an integral part of our finance team. He is essentially “the brain” of our finance department and has been the Chief Financial Officer since January 2024.
"My work can have a significant impact on the fate and well-being of other people; in a world characterized by a lot of negativity, we need at least an equal portion of positivity.
Above all, after decades in a meaningless professional career, I wanted to pursue a job with appropriate meaning.
Compassion, commitment, a sense of fairness and empathy are the things that are important to me as a person. A positive work environment, satisfaction and happiness are the things I experience at the Musketeers, which goes far beyond financial rewards."
Martin "Matze" Meinhardt
Unfortunately, our “Matze” had to make several attempts to get in touch with us. Luckily, he persisted. He immediately proved that he has everything he needs to take on responsibility for us.
If the sports club has the “equipment manager”, then we have our Matze as the “Master of Logistics”. Since 2023 he has been taking care of our “warehouse” and our logistics.
"At 3M RT you can contribute your skills, get involved socially and humanitarianally, work in a great team and also have fun doing it."
