Jeff and Ann VanDerMolen

Dominican Republic

Jeff and Ann VanDerMolen joined the Kids Alive staff in 1997, originally to assist with construction of the Ark Children’s Home.  Jeff is currently serving as Regional Director overseeing the work in the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Haiti, and Peru.  In the DR Jeff also serves as Co-Director of Kids Alive Dominican Republic with Vic Trautwein and Ramon Prenza, while Ann helps with interns, service teams, teacher training, and curriculum development (along with being a busy mom, wife, and home-school teacher).  Jeff and Ann both have degrees from Bethel University in Minnesota in Cross Cultural Studies and Anthropology, respectively.  Ann received her teaching certificate from Spearfish College and her Masters in Curriculum and Instruction from National Lewis in Illinois.  The VanDerMolens have four children: Mariana, Nicolas, Lucas, and Natalie.

“ I get to touch people's lives every day and see the changes that occur in a child's life when they are able to live in a safe, loving place.  It allows me to use my skills in various ways every day. I can share my love for Christ, work with children, work with staff and teams, and be involved in the expansion of new ministry sites.”                                                   Jeff VanDerMolen
