Heather Hope Plant City

Heather's Story

Heathers Hope Foundation Board of Directors

Born and raised in Plant City, Heather earned her education degree from the University of South Florida in 1999. After moving to Lakeland as a young adult, she became a successful and well-loved teacher at Valleyview Elementary and South McKeel Elementary Academy where she had a profound effect on her students. Heather was also the loving mother of two beautiful daughters, Paige and Jordyn. Tragically, Heather was killed on August 23, 2008 in a horrific act of domestic violence. The Heather’s Hope Foundation celebrates the life of this mother and teacher while raising public awareness about the “silent tragedy” of domestic abuse.
