Jeannine Goelz

  • Member, Board of Trustees, United States
  • Country Representative, USA

Jeannine M. Goelz has been associated with CORAfrica’s projects in Nigeria since 2005, when the work in Ogoja was carried on under Gospa Mission, a year before CORAfrica was formally founded. Her familiarity with the charity’s history has shaped its direction and its decisions ever since.

For thirteen years she served as Sponsor Relations Coordinator for St. Joseph’s Orphanage and School in Ogoja. She was instrumental in finding new sponsors, and in sourcing the funding for a much-needed medical clinic and for a school bus.

For the last ten years she has maintained the operation and the reporting of CORAfrica’s American side, and has hosted Fr. Peter in his work during his visits to the United States. She is dedicated to the mission, with a long record of projects conceived, built from the ground up, and kept well maintained into the future.
