The Honor Foundation is excited to welcome Hillary West to THF Team as the Program Coordinator at our Virginia Beach Campus! Hillary grew up in Florida, moving throughout the state before heading to college in Jacksonville. She met her husband there and joined him on his military journey. Although moving is part of the military experience, they spent all of their time in Hampton Roads and Germany. After retirement, they chose to stay in the Hampton Roads area where they are raising three beautiful girls. Hillary's desire to help others brought her to The Honor Foundation. She is excited to continue to serve the community that supported her family for so many years. In her free time, she enjoys traveling and spending time with family and friends.
