ANASTASIA KORNIYKO
Executive Director
Anastasia was born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine. She is the daughter of Roman Korniyko, President and founder of Otchiy Dim (Father's House). Her passion for helping abandoned children continued to grow in her heart as she witnessed the team at Father's House work towards bringing a positive change to these once homeless youth. It seems as though God not only planted the vision for Otchiy Dim in her father’s heart, but also in the hearts of her entire family. Anastasia is a huge fan of munching on fruit loops (without milk!), and dreams of skydiving one day when she is tall enough.

Liliya Rettget
After being in Father’s house for 7 years and being adopted in 2013 to a loving American family, I understand the plight of the orphan. My heart is to do all I can to make others aware of our Christian responsibility to help those in need. I am a lover of all animals and Christian comedians, John Crist and Trey Kennedy.
