Volunteer Spotlight: Deanna Molina

Meet Deanna, a dedicated volunteer and parent of three in St. Vrain Valley Schools!
Deanna's journey with the St. Vrain Valley Schools Education Foundation began after running the Sunrise Stampede with her daughter a few years ago. Inspired by the passionate people behind it and the wide range of programs supporting our community, she jumped in and has been giving back ever since — serving on selection committees for the Celebration of Excellence and Student Scholarships, and most recently volunteering alongside her daughters with the Supplies for Success program.
Originally from New Jersey, Deanna graduated from Duke University and spent 16 years in corporate HR in the fashion and sports industries before shifting her focus to her children's education and local nonprofits. Her family lived in Hong Kong for a few years before settling in Colorado nearly five years ago. In her free time, she loves planning school events, hiking, and exploring new Colorado adventures with her family.
Thank you, Deanna, for all you do for our students and schools! 💛
