Shelene Bryan is founder of Skip1.org, a 501(c)3 non-profit that taps into the world's wealth to bring food and water to children and families in need around the world. Shelene started Skip1 in September 2009 as a result of numerous trips to third-world countries where she saw for herself how skipping one small luxury in America could literally save a child’s life. 100% of all public donations go to the acquisition and distribution of food and water projects.
