Meet Our Models!

Meet three of our lovely models, Anna, Lisa, and Emilia! We are so thankful for their beauty, time and dear friendship.



Anna

Hi, I'm Anna! I met Travis, Brady and the GSM crew in the summer of 2007 and the vision they shared with me about Global Support Mission was amazing. As I've gotten to know them and work with them through the years, they have consistently been a source of inspiration. From their humble, gracious hearts to their creativity to daily putting their words and ideals into action and growing the organization to what it is today!

Upon meeting them and learning what GSM is all about, I immediately let them know that if there was anything I could do to help them I would be happy to! Since then, I've had the honor of helping out with a couple of their "This Is Love" banquets, hosting a couple Red Earth Trade Co. events at my house, hosting Faith from Bringing Hope To the Family while she was in town, and now most recently modeling for the Red Earth Trading Co. website.

I can't say enough about GSM/RETCo and all the people involved with these organizations. They are truly impacting the world daily and I'm thrilled to get to be even just a small part of it.

Hi, I’m Lisa! I’ve known Kerbi and Katy for a couple years. Before Red Earth, I was introduced to Global Support Mission when I attended a banquet and loved the heart behind the organization. About a year ago, Kerbi mentioned starting a new project with Global Support that would focus on new opportunity through amazing handmade products.  It has been incredible to see the project come to life and I’m honored to even be a tiny part of RETCO! The products are absolutely beautiful and they support such a great cause. 



 Emilia

Hello, I’m Emilia! I met Travis and Maggie in 2009 through a friend who was involved with Global Support Mission. I had heard much about GSM and highly respected their vision to help community leaders in developing countries fight extreme poverty. God had placed Africa on my heart early in my life and I desperately wanted to be involved! I went to Uganda with the team in the Spring of 2010. I got to see first-hand all the ways in which the lives of people were drastically changed by the work that Global Support had already done. After one month, I was (thankfully) destroyed and will never see things the same again.

An important part of community development is obviously self-sufficiency, and Red Earth Trading Company seeks to support this by shipping beautiful products straight from the communities who produced them and turning around to return 100% of the profit back to these communities through the work of GSM. THAT is awesome. It’s amazing to see what God’s doing through GSM and RETCo and I am so grateful to be a part of it!
