Meet the Staff - Angie

Angie is our new Manager at Haven of Hope Baby Center. And let me just tell you, she is amazing! She has been with us for about six weeks and my life is already better because of her.

It did not take long at all for Angie to fall in and become part of the HOH family. She quickly became “one of the girls” and they all seem to enjoy working together very much. The babies love her, and she, them. It is fun to watch. One moment, Angie is preparing documents for the babies’ files or filling out expense reports, the next minute she is changing diapers in the babies’ room or cleaning the floor after a messy meal.

Angie has had experience in working with children’s homes as well as with Westerners and Western organizations. That may not seem like a big deal to you, but that is really huge! It is great to have someone who understands where I am coming from, and being able to convey that to those we work with in a way they can better understand and grasp. It is great to have her to help bridge the gap between me and the general Kenyan population, especially government offices and businesses!

Angie knows how to get things done. She has done so much to help get the women’s project started and off the ground. From buying supplies, to hunting for a place to rent, to listening to the ladies’ stories and getting to know them, Angie has been a huge help.

It is great to have Angie as part of the HCO/HOH family! My stress level has definitely decreased in the past few weeks. Thanks, Angie!
