Director of Donor Experience
Mike Johnson
WHY I WORK HERE:
Mike is passionate about inviting you to see how engaging with our guests is not only life-changing for the men, but also transformative for those who give and serve. With a heart for Gospel-centered ministry and trauma-informed care, Mike is excited to join our community and introduce you to the work God is doing at Philly House.
Director of Staffing
Mark Blevins
WHY I WORK HERE:
“I believe I was led to do something meaningful. I worked corporate jobs for years and was never happy at what I was doing. I prayed to be led in the right direction to a job that would help make an impact and difference in some way. Working at Philly House has answered my prayers and allows me the opportunity to help the hurting, hungry and homeless of Philadelphia."
Case Manager
Joseph Gonzalez
WHY I WORK HERE:
“To invest into not only the hearts and minds of our homeless population at Philly House, but also the wellbeing of their souls.”
Case Manager, In Partnership with the Lincoln Center
Shalina Redding
WHY I WORK HERE:
"I truly want to help make a change in the lives of the people I engage with in any capacity. Whether I'm serving a meal, engaging in small talk, or offering resources. I believe this city has hardened our hearts to the point where we lack compassion for those that are in need, homeless, suffering from mental health issues or just having a hard time in life right now. We all need just one person that will not give up on us and I want to be that person for as many men and women who come through the doors of Philly House. "
Head of Donor Care
Angie Vincent
WHY I WORK HERE:
“Working at Philly House was an unexpected opportunity. I love sharing a meal with our guests and hearing their stories. Through these encounters, God has expanded my view of the kingdom and his love for all people. I am so grateful to have the opportunity to serve our guests and donors.”
