Lian Allweis - Founder and Executive Director

I specialize in burnout and well-being, promoting the UN Sustainable Development Goals of good health and well-being. My journey towards advocating these goals was influenced by my deep passion for animals and awareness of the daily challenges endured by the animal care and rescue community. Their unwavering dedication amidst daunting circumstances served as a catalyst for my involvement with Pandora's Hope. I am thrilled to assume the role of a board member, looking forward to contributing my skills and knowledge to ultimately striving for a better, more supportive environment for everyone involved in this noble cause.
