Stephanie O'Neil - Executive Director, is the Owner, Web Designer and Content Creator of Timber and Bloom IT Services. Her passion for creativity, web design, and lending a helping hand led her to follow the call to action to volunteer for Heartland Kids Against Hunger, attending meal-packing events to create social media content alongside her husband. Eventually, she was asked to rebuild and manage Heartland KAH’s website.

Attending meal-packing events and seeing first-hand how the experience positively affects the volunteers and learning how the meals impact the lives of those in need, Stephanie developed a passion for the mission of “serving the least of God’s people,” she accepted the offer to join the Board of Directors in hopes of helping to grow Heartland KAH’s mission to touch as many lives as possible.
