Our Founder

Lisa Henson

Founder & Executive Director

I firmly believe that the blessings we receive are not meant to be kept to ourselves, but shared with those who may need a helping hand. Giving From the Heart was born from that belief, and it continues to guide my commitment to serving others with compassion, dignity and love.                                                                                                       

For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required.
Luke 12:48 (KJV)
