Our Team
The people who carry out the work
A volunteer board of directors in the United States works with community leaders in the border region to ensure the Cheerful Heart Mission vision is realized and its goals are achieved through the projects and programs needed most. Dental and medical professionals, musicians, and educators from the United States volunteer their time and talents during annual mission trips. And a combination of full-time and part-time paid staff and dedicated volunteers living in the border region carry out the daily work.
