Milka Fanord

I have consistently demonstrated a strong commitment to service, leadership, and community engagement across education, ministry, and advocacy spaces. I have actively served in children’s ministry, supporting spiritual development, emotional well-being, and age-appropriate learning for diverse groups of children. Through this role, I helped create safe, nurturing environments while mentoring and supporting youth and families.

I have participated in multiple mission expeditions both domestically and internationally, collaborating with cross-cultural teams to serve communities through outreach, education, and humanitarian support. These experiences strengthened my adaptability, leadership skills, and ability to work effectively in diverse and high-impact environments.

As a substitute teacher, I have supported general education classrooms as well as students with autism and other special needs. I successfully adapted lesson plans, implemented individualized accommodations, and fostered inclusive learning environments that supported academic growth, emotional regulation, and positive behavior outcomes.

In addition, I am actively engaged in activism and community advocacy, working to raise awareness, promote equity, and support underserved populations. My advocacy efforts reflect a strong commitment to social justice, education access, and community empowerment through both grassroots involvement and organized initiatives.
