Samuel (Sam) Nwagbo, Director
Email: sam@thehopeorphans.org

Born and raised in Nigeria, West Africa and resident in West Des Moines, IA U.S.A. I have a heart for the children of Cornerstone and passion to give them a better life. I am a father of two - Sammy and Paris; a community leader and a member of several organizations in the Des Moines area.

I am an insurance professional with years of experience and knowledge. My motto is “Doing Things Right”. My leadership style is to lead by example and reinforce positivity in people.

I have a bachelor degree in Insurance from the University of Lagos (BSc.), Nigeria and a Masters degree in Business Administration from the University of Phoenix (MBA), U.S.A.

It gives me great joy and happiness knowing that as a team, we wipe tears from the eyes of these kids, put smiles on their faces and give hope even when those that brought them to this world have given up on them.
