Her husband and children are also active Charity Crossing volunteers. She has been in charge of Walmart donation pick-up and distribution since 2020. She has organized and conducted a few Charity Crossing special events, assisted the warehouse team with donation collection and sorting, established a few new distribution hubs, and led a weekly distribution program serving the Wilmington community.
