Who We Are

The work that we do involves countless people who contribute their time and skills.  We want you to know about them and how you might get involved with our work.

ET Team

Sue Garcia
Sue Garcia, a long-time volunteer with Eternal Threads, is now working as the full time Office Manager, but her commitment and enthusiasm for our mission goes beyond the office. Sue traveled to Nepal in January 2009 as part of a team to help document our efforts to prevent the trafficking of Nepalese girls. Sue wears many hats, but one of them is our Gatherings Coordinator. She loves to help our Gathering Sale Hostesses plan their event so that they are not only successful but rewarding as well.

Joyce Haley

Brittany Huckabee
Brittany Huckabee, Director and Producer, Verizon One Productions has become a valued member of the ET Team.  She recently donated her time and skills to the production of the video you can view on this site.  She will be traveling with Eternal Threads again in January to document the human tragedy of the trafficking of Nepalese girls

 

ET Partners

Partnership is one of our core values.  The field partners with whom we work are essential to the process of development.  Their local oversight having cultural, linquistic and geographical expertise is superior to any efforts that we could make on our own.  A relationship of trust is essential to our shared success and we make a reciprocal commitment to support one another and the artisans with whom we work and serve.
