Riley is from St. Charles, Illinois and will be serving as an intern in the Dominican Republic this summer. She graduates from Wheaton Academy in June and will be taking a gap year in which she hopes to serve and share her love for Christ as much as possible.

She served with Kids Alive in the Dominican Republic for the first time this January with her school, and immediately fell in love with the country and the ministry. She has always had a heart for service and helping others, and after her time with Kids Alive, she was looking for ways to come back right away. She saw God work in incredible ways over the course of her trip, and can’t wait to see how he uses her and her gifts during this time.

Riley will serve in June and July as a part of a team working to organize the medical information of the children that Kids Alive serves. She is so excited and grateful for this opportunity to step out in her faith and spread the love of Jesus, and would appreciate any prayer and support!
