"Hallo! My name is Linda and I founded 2mothers in 2016 together with Inge. I remember when my father started development aid in the late 90's. I was very proud of the work he did, and more than anything it inspired me. My father teached me that it is always better to give than to take. I take that mindset with me, in all the work I do for 2Mothers. It gives me satisfaction, energy and pride to see "Our" mothers working and to assist them in developing themselves and their quality of living.

Besides my work with 2Mothers, I work as productmanagers in wholesale. I use the skills and knowlegde of this work, with 2Mothers to guarantee a success. It makes me beyond proud to do this work with Inge, Fleur and Eva."

LINDA HALSEMA

FOUNDER

Hi! I am Inge, and I am the founder of 2Mother together with my sister Linda. Alongisde, I am the founder of The Thom Foundation. For this foundation, Linda and myself travelled to Bangladesh in 2016. During our stay, we met and had meaningful conversations with the mothers of childern with a disability. I was touched by their power, positivity and strength, but their hard reality was visible.

I want to make a difference for those mothers, and vulnerable mothers worldwide, small or big. With 2Mothers we make this difference in a fair and sustainable matter. Enhancing everyone's opportunities is something that suits me well, with the work that I do for 2Mothers but also with my work as Junior High School Nurse.
