Meet Our Global Health Ambassadors!
As an international organization, we have chapters outside the United States in the Dominican Republic, South Africa, Italy and France
Dominican Republic
Anyls Matos
Dominican Republic Chapter Head
Hey! I’m Anlys, I’m currently going through my sophomore year in the Dominican Republic. I decided to be part of Billion shines because I want to do something bigger than myself. My dream is to pursue medicine, and I know this is the best way to start.
South Africa
Verity King
South Africa Chapter Head
Hello! My name is Verity King. I am the ambassador of International Billion Shines in Pretoria, South Africa. After being in this service for one year in Washington DC I then had the amazing opportunity to contribute from another continent. Additionally, I help to host collaborations between Billionaire Shines and South Africa’s Cooking for a Cause (a group focused on making health accessible through the route of food), of which I am a president.
France

France Chapter Head
Hi! My name is Nicole, and I am the Director of Reel Development and I am doing SYA / starting a chapter in France. I am a current junior in Maryland. I love tennis, crew, and French, and I am involved in my school’s newspaper and theater programs. Through my work, I aim to educate and promote health equity.

Hi! My name is Charlotte Siepierski, and I am the Director of International affairs here at Billion Shines.
