Welcome (A)Board Tina!

If you attended our Sweet 16 celebration, you were lucky to share in an authentic Liberian meal prepared by Chef and Owner of Gold Coast Ghal Kitchen Tina Fahnbulleh. We are honored to also have her share her time and talents as she joins Hope's Board of Directors.

Tina and her team at Hope’s Sweet 16


Tina became familiar with Hope as she worked with us at our last two events by using her culinary and cultural influences to make them special. Our board of directors approached her to see if she would be interested in joining. Born in Liberia and raised in Ghana, Tina will be a unique asset to the stateside board.


And speaking of Hope's Sweet 16...the night was magical. Your collective generosity raised nearly $80,000 in one-time, new and increased recurring gifts to support the educational dreams of the 1300+ students at Hope International. Our hearts are full.

Mark your calendars for May 3rd, 2025 when we will gather again to celebrate Hope! If you don't want to wait until then to sample Tina's West African inspired dishes, you can visit her restaurant Gold Coast Ghal Kitchen at 1011 Boren Avenue in Seattle. You can read more about her restaurant in the Seattle Met

We are excited to welcome Tina to the board!
