Our Team
Saba Zewdu
Board Chair
In 2026 I am stepping into the role of Board Chair at Azadi! Having served as the Safeguarding Focal Point, I am now transitioning from protecting our culture to architecting our strategic future alongside our amazing board members and staff. By day, I hope to lead our 'startup ship' through the exciting transition from foundational growth to high-impact scaling, ensuring we remain operationally lean but mission-driven. I stay grounded in our promise of safety and dignity remains a living reality for everyone we serve.
When I’m not deep in my purpose work - Im probably hiking a new trail or enjoying a slow afternoon with my favorite people. I consider myself a PLOVER' (People Lover) who thrives on community, whether that’s volunteering, traveling to gain a new perspective, or finding joy in my church community. For me, life is a beautiful adventure best shared with loved ones, and I’m on a mission to live every bit of it to the fullest.
My Mantra: "Be somebody who makes everybody feel like somebody."
My goal is to lead with an empathy that leaves people feeling seen, heard and empowered.
