Globally Improving Health and Providing Hope with Esperanca.org CEO Jeri Royce

Esperança (es‧pe‧ran‧sah), the Portuguese word for hope, resonates in everything we do.

We are more than doctors, donors, volunteers. We are activists, community members, and global citizens. We are connected to our work because we are there, on the ground, letting the people tell us what they need.

Our Mission: to improve health and provide hope through disease prevention, education and treatment for every life we touch.

Our Vision: health equity for everyone.

Jeri is a seasoned nonprofit executive with over 25 years of experience in local and national organizations. In 2017 she began her role as the first female President & CEO of Esperança, a 52 year-old Phoenix-based organization dedicated to providing health education to the Arizona’s most at-risk populations while coordinating volunteer surgical brigades and community development projects for communities in Bolivia, Ecuador, Mexico, Mozambique, Nicaragua and Peru. A journey through breast cancer left Jeri feeling more connected to our vision of health equity for everyone.
 
Outside of Esperança, Jeri inspires hope in the Valley by serving as a board member for the Alliance of Arizona Nonprofits and Love & Light Ministries, and as a long-time mentor to an at-risk teen with New Pathways for Youth. Jeri also teaches ASU Lodestar Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Innovation, sharing her expertise in subjects like High Impact Leadership and Becoming a Person of Influence. Most recently, Jeri was named the 2020 Arizona Business Angels Nonprofit Executive of the Year by AZ Big Media and was selected for the 2022 Virginia G. Piper Fellowship.
