About Worthwhile

Allegra oversees the development of Worthwhile’s housing, employment, and community-based outreach and empowerment programs for survivors of human trafficking. Using her 30 years of experience working in the field of poverty, family homelessness and housing instability, Allegra enjoys working with staff to offer compassionate and high-quality programming for survivors. When Allegra is not developing our programming, you might find her hanging out with her family, cooking or gardening. Zinnias are her favorite summertime flower but nothing beats fall and all-things-pumpkin.

Evie coordinates, schedules and maintains relationships with local resources for our Worth It program. Evie has her Masters in Social Work from Temple University and is licensed in the state of Pennsylvania. She has worked in several different capacities in the past including her work with Project SHINE during grad school where she developed a passion for the role of nonprofits and advocacy work in the community. In Evie's free time, you might find her working on a creative project, grabbing the next book off her reading list or planning her next adventure with her family.

Stephanie provides behind the scenes support through administrative efforts, donation management, and payroll support. Her most recent role was a Volunteer Coordinator for CASA Berks County, where she supervised and coached volunteer advocates. She worked directly in assisting in the development of advocacy plans customized to address the individual needs of children within the foster care system. Stephanie's passion for helping others began roughly 10 years ago when she started bringing groups of high school students to volunteer either at the store or at The Well. That's when she truly fell in love with both the incredible people and the inspiring mission. You can find Stephanie spending time with her family and friends and exploring local thrift stores in search of hidden gems.
