Lori Connell

COO

COO

Lori’s first visit to Honduras was in 1999 soon after Hurricane Mitch ravaged the capital city and surrounding areas. She was part of a mission team that came to provide housing, food, and medical care.  Lori was impacted deeply by the poverty she saw and was drawn to the women and children and their daily struggle to survive.  It was then that a passion for justice and empowerment for women began.  Lori and her husband Mark moved to Honduras in 2008 to work among the people full time.

“I seek to live out my life and faith by these words...Be the change you wish to see in the world.”

In 2002 Lori Connell Co-founded Mi Esperanza. Lori serves as the COO of Mi Esperanza, overseeing the program's day-to-day operations, which include the skills training school, micro-credit program, production house, and the ME brand, her primary responsibilities.  Lori’s passion is to improve women's lives in extreme poverty, knowing it will change the lives of their children, families, and communities...." the ripple effect of love is endless."   Lori & Mark have two children; Ryan Connell Hargis (Zac) and Eric Connell (Jenny.) Lori's favorite job is being Lola to her five grandchildren, Will, Maya, Kate, Andrew, and Henry.
