I love the incredible work that this organization accomplishes and am thrilled to be a part of it. I have been married for over 25 years and am the mother of eight incredible kids. I have five sons, three daughters, and the cutest little grandson ever! I love quilting, baking and reading, but my favorite activity is spending time with my family.

Em is the Development Officer which means she does a little bit of everything from digital marketing, to grant writing, to donor relations. She joined the MWB family in 2019 as an intern, going on the May Internship Team. She transitioned to her current role in early 2020. She loves working at Mothers Without Borders because of who she becomes as she learns from the wonderful people of Zambia. ``They teach me how to love deeper and live more joyfully.

Alyssa is a public health intern for MWB and works on projects including graphic design, community outreach, program evaluation—and anything else that comes up! She loves working for an organization where she is pushed to learn new skills with each project—with it all focused on bringing light, love, and hope into the lives of others. Alyssa began volunteering with MWB two years ago and has loved every minute of it—from traveling to Zambia with the May 2019 intern team to designing the 2018 annual report and helping to plan DonorPalooza. ``I feel so blessed to be involved in a work that is so centered on people and so focused on inspiring love and hope. There is so much power that comes from showing up—even if you can't speak the same language, cure a disease or solve the problems of poverty, you can bring yourself and your heart and offer love to those you meet.``

I am a senior at BYU studying Public Health. The reason that I love being an intern at Mothers Without Borders is that they focus on children’s and women’s health which is the whole reason that I went into public health in the first place! It is so amazing to be able to see real change in real people’s lives and to feel connected to people all the way around the world.

I am currently studying Public Health, with an emphasis in Health Promotion at Brigham Young University. I am really passionate about helping provide resources and aid to vulnerable populations. I am especially interested in eventually researching and developing policies to better prevent the mistreatment of women and children across the globe. I also really enjoy rock climbing, hiking, and acrylic painting. I chose to do an internship with Mothers Without Borders because this organization provides a great opportunity to build lifelong friendships while connecting vulnerable women and children with necessary resources such as food, schooling, and vocational training.

I currently serve on the board of MWB and serve as the secretary to that board. I've been a team member on expeditions to Zambia several times and a team leader at least 3 times as well. I'm very devoted to all my friends in Zambia some I've known for years and some I have yet to meet!! Mothers Without Borders will always be a huge part of my life.
I'm retired from 20 plus years in the medical/nursing profession. Twenty years in the practice of oncology, as well as stints in rheumatology and dermatology. These many years of caring for others have given me perspective and compassion and the gifts I've received from my many, many patients through the years are immeasurable.
I love all things in and within nature and exercise. Hiking is a great passion of mine, and I will find a hike anywhere in the world. I love to travel and experience and I greatly respect all cultures.
I have an amazing family that affords me the luxury to be a bit of a vagabond and supports my great wanderlust.

I'm an international team leader and Knowing Love Works trainer as well as a member of the MWB board. I've owned an online business as well as been involved with MWB on various levels including Director of Expeditions since 2011. I'm passionate about travel and my friends in Zambia. I also love teams and have a passion for the work we do both in Africa and the US.

I heard about MWB at a women's conference in 2005 and knew that it was something that I wanted to do. 6 years later I went to Zambia for the first time with my oldest son. Since then all of my four children and my husband Jared have been to Zambia multiple times. It has changed our lives and made us more compassionate, aware and involved global citizens.

Joel is the EVP of Tommy Bahama Sportswear Company. He brings a strong understanding of business operation, finance, and strategy to MWB’s. Joel serves on the board as Chairman of the Finance Committee.

Joel’s passion for Mothers Without Borders came through the stories and changes he saw in his wife, Melissa, after her first trip to Zambia. However, his desire to help make a difference really took off after his first visit to Zambia. Seeing first hand for himself the impact Mothers Without Borders was having on the lives of so many women and children solidified his commitment to make a difference.
