WHI Welcomes Scott Drury

World Hope International (WHI) is pleased to welcome Scott Drury to the organization in the newly-created role of Executive Gift Officer. In his new role with WHI Scott will connect with many friends and donors to the organization to build existing relationships and create new opportunities for WHI to further its mission.

Having done missions work in Hungary and China in addition to his professional background, Scott has demonstrated an appreciation for the work done by organizations like WHI.

“God is at work through World Hope International and I am excited to join what He is doing. World Hope International represents a unique opportunity to be part of God's transforming and empowering work to alleviate suffering and injustice around the world,” Drury said. “I look forward to building relationships with those already committed to the mission of World Hope and inviting others to become partners in its life-changing vision.”
