Holly Griffin
Excel Day Program Coordinator | Springfield
Born and raised in Springfield, Missouri, Holly developed a passion for education and community early on. After earning her degree in history education from Missouri State University in 2020, she spent four fulfilling years teaching in a small-town public school system. During that time, she found great joy in building relationships with students, fostering curiosity, and helping young people grow—both academically and personally.
Although leaving the classroom was a difficult decision, Holly saw a new opportunity to make a meaningful difference through her work at Restoring Hope. This new role allows her to continue serving others, now in a broader capacity. She is excited to help individuals navigate life’s challenges and rediscover their strength and purpose, bringing the same heart and dedication to this work that she brought to teaching.
