Thank you so much for taking the time to browse Hearts to be Treasured non profit website! My name is Heather and I wanted to share a brief biography! First and foremost, thank you God for providing this amazing opportunity to help those in need. I am a wife and mother of two boys, John (7) and Joshua (5).
2001-2004, I served in the United States Army National Guard as a motor transport operator (88M). We would often transport tanks for the cavalry unit. I was honorably discharged as a Sergeant.
2005-2014, I served the Las Vegas, Nevada community as a Highway Patrol State Trooper.
2014-2021, I served the Reno, Nevada community as a Washoe County Sheriff’s Office detention deputy. During those years, I served on the Major Accident Investigation Team as an assistant investigator for fatal accidents.
2021-present, I retired from law enforcement to become a stay at home mom. During that time I started reading children stories on YouTube.
While pursuing the YouTube stories, God connected me with the founder of Greatful Children’s Orphanage (GCO) in Mityana, Uganda. I extensively started researching his organization. My heart had led me to help his fourteen orphaned children he had rescued from the streets of Uganda.
Within five months, donations have been provided to help GCO start a poultry project, provide school supplies and funding for the children’s education, provide meals and permanent shelter, and help provide a “rent to own” property.
As this mission to help the children at GCO grew, I knew I wanted to provide the donors the option for a tax-deduction. In March 2024, I began the process to become a non-profit organization. In June 2024, Hearts to be Treasured was officially blessed a 501(c)3!
My family and I love to travel! My goal is to adopt children from impoverished parts of the world to help their families “get on their feet” and become a recipient of Hearts to be Treasured. These sponsorships will also create lifelong friendships and teach my children the importance of sharing their blessings!
Thank you for your support and if you have any further questions please reach out!

Having a logo that truly represented my non profit efforts and mission was extremely important. I envisioned the perfect logo in my mind but transferring idea to paper was challenging. I wanted cookies in the logo because this plan God had for me all began with baking and selling cookies to raise funds for the orphaned children at Greatful Children's Orphanage. It did not take long before my logo idea was finalized in my mind. I envisioned a treasure box with heart-shaped cookies rising out of the treasure box. I contacted Dina Rustamova, who is a phenomenal children's book illustrator. Dina quickly embraced my idea and provided a logo that instantly melted my heart. Thank you so much Dina!
