Our team
The BUILDING HOPE team brings together collective international and Cambodian based experience to provide a solid foundation of knowledge, skill, design and creativity for this project.
The Hope School Board has been praying for a number of years for a permanent home for the school. Our voluntary Board, under the chairmanship of Gerald Harley, continues to play a vital role in leading the school forward into God's purposes.
Hope School Director Brent Willsmore skillfully oversees all aspects of the BUILDING HOPE Project, working to fulfill the school's mission To support world missions by providing quality, Christ-centered educational services for families of international Christian workers in Cambodia and surrounding countries.
BUILDING HOPE's Design Team includes project architect Paul Robinson who is working closely with Regie Japitana and Naomi Rowland on the plans, filling in detail and working in consultation with the school community to ensure the planned facility meets Hope School’s current and future needs. Adding to this team is Ueli Sommer, our project manager who is currently working with local construction companies to assemble construction quotes.
Paul and Naomi are seconded to Hope School through OMF, and Ueli through YWAM. We are thankful for the people around the world who financially support Paul, Naomi and Ueli’s work in Cambodia, allowing them to provide outstanding professional services without receiving payment from the funds raised for BUILDING HOPE.
Development Officer Caroline Berry is coordinating communication and fundraising for BUILDING HOPE.
