She worked for 20 years in international relief and development in Singapore and Indonesia.

Her happy place is sipping a flat white coffee while having a deep conversation and enjoying either a beach or mountain vacation with the love of her life, Jason, their urbanite Third Culture Kids, and their Singaporean rescue dog.

In Lori's words:
Our world is polarized, sorted, and siloed in evho chambers that pit us against each other. The war in Eastern Europe is the culmination of what happens when we fail to listen, to see, and to include each other in solving our world’s problems together. Learning to listen, crossing the street, crossing the aisle, and linking arms together in celebration of our differences will help us change the broken systems in our world. We need each other.

3 Top Tips
1. Listen to understand, and listen some more
2. Pro-actively seek out diverse voices to teach you
3. Link arms with people different from you to solve issues in your community, nation and world

You have cancer. Oh, but there is more. Having always been an overachiever, I had not one cancer but two – Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and Multiple Myeloma. Yep, I did not know you could get two cancers at the same time either! It’s even rarer to get the two I had. I am a part of the lucky 1%! Like most people you start examining your lifestyle – obesity, stress levels, food etc.... My husband was convinced it was the stress of the job. So, on one of my weak days, he made me promise to retire. Since that day, I love what I do, I love what I do, has been on loop in my head. I cannot imagine not getting up daily to make the world a better place through my work. Plus, I have so much knowledge in my head that can help others. Hence, the brainchild Supporting World Hope was developed. What if I could help fill in the gap for those small nonprofits who do not have access to a National office?

Having been a CEO of a nonprofit for the last 15 years and working through the ranks from program delivery to operations I experienced all levels of what it takes to run a great nonprofit. I swear on one day I went from cleaning a toilet to being flown in a private plan to visit the board of a major foundation. It’s all in a day’s work, right? And yes, we received the grant from the foundation. I digress, because of this experience I believe that if you focus on supporting the CEOs & the Board of Directors and developing the program staff organizations can stay razor sharp on their mission. Thus, changing the world and giving people hope. Hence the name Supporting World Hope!

I’m a cancer survivor who promised her husband to take it slow, but I have a passion for nonprofit work.

Sabrina Walker Hernandez is the President & CEO of Supporting World Hope. She has over 25 years of experience in nonprofit management, fundraising and leadership. One of Sabrina’s greatest successes is that she increased operation revenue from $750,000 to 2.5 million over an 8-year period as well as being responsible for the planning and operations of a $12 million comprehensive capital campaign. She has facilitated numerous workshops with hundreds of nonprofit professionals. Sabrina is certified in Nonprofit Management by Harvard Business School.

She currently serves on the Board of Directors for Village in Valley, Edinburg Rotary, FEMCity of the RGV, and Edinburg Economic Development Corporation.

Sabrina's 3 top tips:

1. A different way to look at your journey - what was it preparing you for?
2. The joy of giving back
3. Faith over Fear
