Please support Judith Harper's Path to Care and Recovery.

Donation protected
We place our faith, belief, and trust in God for the full recovery of our mother—who is not only a loving Mom, Grandma, Sister, Mother-in-Law, Aunt, Cousin, and Friend but also a catalyst to so many lives. She has served in numerous capacities: Christian Education Teacher, Educator, International Teacher, Nurse, and Principal.

As a family, we are dedicated to supporting her through every step of her treatments, healing, and recovery. Whether you choose to donate, pray, send well wishes, or offer words of encouragement and positivity, we are deeply grateful for your support. My sister and I have become our mom’s caregivers during this journey, and your encouragement makes the path brighter.

Thank you, Lyjune ~ Eldest Daughter

Our Mom
Judith Harper, a retired educator and nurse, has dedicated over five decades to serving communities both domestically and internationally. Her passion for service was deeply influenced by her mother, a nurse, and her childhood imagination, where she often taught her dolls in make-believe classrooms. She followed this early inspiration by pursuing higher education, earning a nursing license, a bachelor's degree in special education with a focus on speech pathology, and an Ed.S. in elementary school administration.

In 2004, she joined the Peace Corps as an Education Volunteer in Namibia. There, she co-trained teachers and taught reproductive health and HIV/AIDS prevention. Her service was extended for an additional two years.

After retiring, Judith continued her contributions through the Peace Corps' Virtual Service Pilot. She collaborated with teachers in South Africa, trained educators in Mpumalanga, mentored teaching assistants, and worked with Liberian educators to enhance early childhood education. She continues her virtual service teaching.

Judith’s commitment to education and service is beautifully complemented by her family life. She is the loving mother of four children and the proud owner of a Labradoodle named Copper. Her dedication to education, healthcare, and community service has left a lasting impact on countless lives.
