Jen Lilley

Advocating for foster care and adoption is something that speaks to Jen Lilley's heart. While growing up in Roanoke, Virginia, Jen's parents were considered the "unofficial foster parents" due to their line of work - her father was a judge, while her mother was a director of a women and children's charity - making their home a "safe house" of sorts. Jen was awarded the National Educators Award for her tireless work in Guatemala and is known for advocating children's rights where she actively supports foundations that focus on protecting children against physical and sexual abuse, human trafficking, and the world water crisis. Jen is a celebrity ambassador for the child abuse and treatment organizations Childhelp, Project Orphans, ECPAT, and The Dave Thomas Foundation.
