In the past couple of years, Dawn has become involved with Feed the Need MobilePack in Illinois, a group which organizes a meal-packing event at North Central College in Naperville each Presidents’ Day weekend. Over the course of just two days, the Feed the Need MobilePack event packed more than a million meals in each of the last two years for Feed My Starving Children.

Dawn is honored to be here with us tonight, as we turn Hunger into Hope.

S T E P H A N I E B R E Z E A U L TStephanie is the pottery manager at FMSC MarketPlace partner Papillon Enterprise, where beautiful handcrafted mugs are created and sold to provide artisans with a sustainable income. Stephanie’s job at Papillon helps pay for her five-year-old son to go to school and enables her to provide for her large family. She says, “Thank you for buying our mugs. These purchases help me and my family.”

K R I S T I N E F L A D E B O E D U I N I N C K , F L A D E B O E A U C T I O N SKristine became a professional auctioneer in 1995. Her love for the auction business started nearly twenty years earlier as she listened to her father sell everything from cattle to collectibles to real estate. After Kristine graduated from the University of St. Thomas with a degree in business and communications, she quickly became part of the family business. In July 2010 Kristine was named International Auctioneer Champion—the top female auctioneer in the United States—by the National Auctioneers Association (NAA). She served as an ambassador throughout the following year for the Association and its members, promoting the profession of auctioneering and the “auction method of marketing.” Kristine has helped FMSC raise thousands of dollars to feed kids.

Kristine is a wife, mom, marathon runner and has conducted auctions from Minnesota all the way to Hong Kong! Kristine’s passion is to make a difference in the lives of others through auctioneering and motivational speaking.

M A R K C R E AMark became the Executive Director/CEO of Feed My Starving Children in 2004 and has led FMSC to 46 percent year-over-year growth. As a man of faith, he is passionate about helping the most vulnerable in Jesus’ name. Mark has 38 years of experience managing non-profit organizations and raising funds. Before FMSC he held director positions in marketing and development at many corporations and national non-profits, including Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life and the Hazelden Foundation.

P A S T O R J A C K L I N E T I E N N E Pastor Jacklin Etienne currently lives with his wife in Port au Prince, Haiti. He works as Administrator for FMSC food partner Living Water Ministries of the Palm Beaches (LWM) in Northwest Haiti. Pastor Etienne oversees all LWM projects, programs, villages and personnel, with a mission to “Regenerate the hope of the Haitian people through the love of Christ.” He is well-known and respected throughout the rural villages in Haiti. Pastor Etienne studied socio-anthropology in Ethnology faculty in Haiti and accounting in Gerard Armand Joseph Business School. Later, he received the Master in Divinity degree at UCNH, Université Chretienne du Nord d’Haiti.

D A W N D E S A R T Dawn DeSart is a Chicago media personality. She has worked in television (NBC5), radio (nearly every radio station in the city) and print. Dawn’s greatest passion, however, is serving others. Her avocation became educating our future leaders. She served on the Little Blessings Preschool Board as well as the Indian Prairie School District’s Board of Education, which educates 29,000 students per year. Several years ago, Dawn discovered Feed My Starving Children, where she learned that children cannot pay attention to their education in school if they are starving. She began volunteering regularly at the FMSC packing site in Aurora, Ill. She currently volunteers there with her children, her Girl Scout troop, her church, and also brings her friends and acquaintances to come and pack FMSC meals.
