People of Orchid

Orchid’s ALL-volunteer staff makes it possible for us to meet our core commitment to our sponsors that 100% of their donation is used to help the communities we serve. Our Board of Directors also exist to ensure that all of the activities of the organization are aligned with Orchid’s mission and objectives.
