Rolf Zehnpfennig, born in 1965, the founder of the IN CHILDREN’S EYES endowment fund.

After high school and military service, Rolf also successfully completed his training in the hospitality field. He spent three years at a below-the-line ad agency as project manager and procurator. 1992 Rolf opened his own agency and has been successfully representing artists as booking agent and career manager. His portfolio includes national and international artists appearing across Europe.

In 2008, Rolf decided to become more socially responsible and established the IN CHILDREN’S EYES endowment fund. Translating his words into deeds, he works to support projects that bring attention to the needs of the sexually abused. Fighting the abuse and working with groups to help prevent it in the first place has become a priority.
