After 22 years as a public educator (high school teacher and principal), Michelle found the perfect vehicle to truly impact the culture of high schools. As the Executive Director of Dream On 3, she combines her doctorate in educational leadership, her practical experience of working within schools, and her passion for impacting change.

Carolyn Salvador
Executive Director, Enduring Hearts
Before I went to work for Enduring Hearts, a 501 C3 non-profit started here in Ga, I thought that a heart transplant was the "cure". I had no idea that a transplant was only a bridge to life and that on average a heart transplant lasted only 10-12 years.
Image a child with heart failure, waiting for another child to die so they can get their new heart. It is really unthinkable as a parent. Although congenital heart defects are the most common birth defect, impacting 1 out of 1000 children, very little research has been put forth around children with heart disease and specifically those that have late stage failure and need a heart transplant.
Enduring Hearts is funding innovative pediatric heart transplant research nationally to help make that transplant the cure and give children the chance to live long happy lives. In fact our scientific advisory committee has identified $3.1M that they believe we need to fund over the next several years to answer questions that can save lives.
Brief Description of Product or Service:
Enduring Hearts is the only organization dedicated solely to funding pediatric heart transplant research to help children with heart failure have the chance to live longer, healthier lives.

SERV INTERNATIONAL: WE ARE ALL ABOUT GIVING PEOPLE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE AND EXPERIENCE LIFE IN A WHOLE NEW WAY.
Mission: We use food as a platform to share God's love and transform lives.
Vision: To physically and spiritually feed people and develop stronger communities in some of the most remote regions in the world.
How: SERV has used food as a platform to share God's love since 2000. For the past 18 years, SERV has kept its focus on food, but it has led to so much more. We build relationships with people who live in some of the most extreme conditions on the planet, and we keep going back, providing clean water, shelter, education, protection from human trafficking and so much more.
We invite you to join us on a mission trip to personally experience life in a whole new way. You will never be the same after traveling with us to the ends of the earth and beyond, serving others in need and reaching the lost. Don't want to travel that far? You can sponsor a child at our House of Hope orphanage, volunteer with us or become a partner or underwriter to help us further our reach. There are so many ways you can make a difference. You can start today!
