Prior to founding Worthwhile Wear, Dan spent close to 6 years working in marketing and sales at an engineering firm before he left everything to follow his desire to help survivors of human trafficking. Dan holds a BS from Clearwater Christian College, but attributes much of his education to his years spent growing up in Ukraine as a missionary kid. (More about that here.)

Dan enjoys getting to interact and connect with participants, staff, volunteers, donors, business partners, and other supporters associated with Worthwhile Wear. When Dan’s not laying the groundwork for Worthwhile Wear’s next steps, you’ll likely find him listening to a podcast and working on his latest project. Whether it be a broken engine, a circuit board that needs soldering or some carpentry work, Dan finds his happy place fixing things.

Prior to Worthwhile Wear, Brooke spent a few years supporting various small business owners as they worked towards their business goals. She also flexed her creative muscles as a Director of Communications for her church through written and graphic design. These roles helped her to discover the joy in supporting others and shaped her analytical approach to work.

A strong believer in business being used as a force for good, Brooke was drawn to how Worthwhile Wear utilized their thrift business to support their programs. She’s worn a few hats since her early days as a thrift volunteer and now enjoys getting to be a part of all aspects of Worthwhile Wear (and still scratch that creative itch through marketing and planning events). She holds a BA degree from Eastern University. Although she may not work at Worthwhile Thrift anymore, outside of work you can likely find Brooke scouring her local thrift stores for her next great find or convincing her dog to give up the latest sock he discovered.

Prior to joining the Worthwhile Wear team, Tina was a part of a volunteer construction team for the Education and Counseling Center at The Well. As she learned more about the issue of human trafficking, she felt compelled to take action and be a part of the solution. Tina earned her BS degree from Kutztown University and also holds a certificate in Non-Profit Management from LaSalle University.

Tina was inspired through her professional experience working for the Travis Manion Foundation as she engaged with families of the fallen and harnessed the power of volunteers to serve their community. Now Tina enjoys inspiring others to engage in our mission. When she puts a pause on her work, you might find her out on a long distance run enjoying God’s creation.

Stephanie previously served as a Worth It Coordinator, a role that provided her with abundant opportunities as she directly engaged with participants and volunteers at each host site. Her most recent role was a Volunteer Coordinator for CASA Berks County, where she supervised and coached volunteer advocates. She worked directly in assisting in the development of advocacy plans customized to address the individual needs of children within the foster care system.

Stephanie's passion for helping others began roughly 10 years ago when she started bringing groups of high school students to volunteer either at the store or at The Well. That's when she truly fell in love with both the incredible people and the inspiring mission.

You can find Stephanie spending time with her family and friends and exploring local thrift stores in search of hidden gems.
