She leads not only with vision but with action โ€” working side by side with the team to bring hope and practical support to those who need it most.

She is happily married to her high school sweetheart and best friend. Together, they live as full-time nomads, traveling in their beloved Ford Transit, visiting their children and spending quality time outdoors โ€” whether itโ€™s on the water or high up in the mountains.

At Give Basic Needs, we are honored to be led by someone whose heart for service matches her capacity to lead. Abbie Colussi reminds us that true leadership is not about position alone โ€” itโ€™s about presence, passion, and the courage to live what we believe.
