Board Chair

I believe that leader development and institution building in for-impact settings fuels long-term social change. I currently serve as Chief of Staff for United World Mission, a leadership formation and ministry training organization. Previously, I served for 7 years with a leader development ministry in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). I am from the United States, where I earned a degree in History from the University of Evansville (IN) and a Masters in International Peace Studies from Notre Dame’s Kroc Institute (IN). My husband and I live in Chicago where we enjoy exploring different neighborhoods, preferably by bike!

HANNAH CONNELLY

Hello, I’m Hannah Connelly. I’ve always had a passion for helping people and understanding what motivates us to chase our dreams and be happy in life. 

I grew up in Granville, Ohio, and graduated from Granville High School in 2011. I then went to Bowling Green State University (OH), graduating in 2015. After working as a social worker in Toledo (OH) for five years, my husband, daughter, and I moved back home to be close to family and raise our daughter in the community I know and love. I am chasing my passion to help others through real estate and local/digital marketing.

I am so excited to start this journey serving my community who has given so much to me!
