About Arlene Golembiewski:
Arlene volunteers as Executive Director of Sherbro Foundation Sierra Leone, a nonprofit she founded in 2013 to serve the chiefdom where she once was a Peace Corps teacher. The foundation lifts people from poverty to self-reliance through education and economic empowerment. Beginning with girls’ scholarships in one school, Sherbro Foundation has grown to support five programs that have served 5000 of the world’s poorest people, many in villages too remote for government or NGO aid. The National Peace Corps Association recognized Arlene with their 2018 Sargent Shriver Award for Distinguished Humanitarian Service for her work in Sierra Leone, their
highest honor for a returned volunteer. She received the P&G Alumni Network’s 2017 Humanitarian award. Arlene retired from a thirty-year career at Procter & Gamble as Associate Director of Global Health, Safety and Environment, where she developed HS&E programs around the world and advised on new product introductions. Arlene received a B.S. in Zoology and a Masters of Public Health in Environmental & Industrial Health both from the University of Michigan.
