WINNIE HUSON
BOARD MEMBER

Winnie immigrated to the United States from Kenya at the age of five and has spent most of her life in the Tacoma area. Growing up in an immigrant family shaped her deep appreciation for resilience, faith, and community, and gives her a personal understanding of the challenges families face when adapting to a new country, culture, and language. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Film from Eastern Washington University and later returned to school to pursue a Master’s in Accounting. Winnie currently serves as an auditor and Medicare cost report preparer, bringing financial insight, analytical strength, and a heart for stewardship to her professional work. She is passionate about using her skills with excellence and integrity.

Winnie attends Lighthouse Church in Puyallup, where her faith in Jesus Christ is the foundation of her life. She is committed to growing in her daily walk with Him and living out her faith through service and obedience.

She serves on the Sojourner Home Board because she resonates deeply with God’s heart for the foreigner and the vulnerable. As someone who once navigated life as a newcomer, she desires to help create a safe and welcoming space where refugee and asylee families can find stability, dignity, and hope. She is guided by Leviticus 19:34: “The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself,” believing that welcoming others is a tangible expression of Christ’s love in action.
