RADIANT DESTINY INTERNATIONAL
A team of volunteers dedicated to the revitalization of communities
FOUNDER
RADIANT DESTINY INTERNATIONAL
Danielle Ellinas
From the time she was little, Danielle remembers her most 'happy place' being with children. After earning her B.A. in Psychology, with a focus on children, she taught in a private elementary school for six years. Following these years of teaching, she and her husband, Marios co-pastored Valley Shore Church in Old Saybrook, CT. During these years, her passion to care for children never waned. After seeing students in need, at her own children's elementary school, Danielle started the Back to School Clothing Initiative and a From the Community For the Community clothing exchange in her community. Over the years, through these two initiatives, hundreds of children have received new or like new clothing from generous community members.
While visiting Ethiopia in 2015, Danielle was greatly impacted by the scores of homeless children and orphans. After spending time in an orphanage and seeing the grim conditions, Danielle became determined to build healthy homes for these and other children from underdeveloped countries. As Radiant Destiny continues to reach out to communities in Connecticut and Cyprus, through the Back to School and From the Community For the Community initiatives, a Healthy Homes for Kids initiative is on the horizon.
In addition to her work at Radiant Destiny International, Danielle teaches at retreats and conferences empowering people to freely pursue their full purpose and destiny. She also provides services for inner healing.
Danielle and her husband, Marios have three children - Christos (18), Caleb (15), and Chloe (13).

COMMUNITY CLOTHING EXCHANGE COORDINATOR
Camie Lozier
Camie has learned, over the years, that in many instances we cannot meet the spiritual needs of others until we have met their physical needs. She has a love for others and wants to serve in order to see people’s lives changed for the better. She desires all to walk in freedom, love, and joy. Camie has come to realize that if you are willing to reach out a hand of love, others will gratefully reach back. It is through relationship that lives are changed, families are made whole, and finally the community is affected for the better.
Over the past 7 years Camie and her family have been licensed foster care parents through the state of Connecticut. She has had the opportunity to “mother” and nurture dozens of lives. Camie has also worked for the past three years at Gallup Hill Elementary School as a Para-professional in the literacy program. Through working with these students she was able to see the need first hand, and was moved to make a difference in their lives. Camie has chosen to partner with Radiant Destiny International because she shares in the vision of meeting the needs within the Ledyard community and the surrounding communities.
Camie and Scott live in Ledyard, CT with their two daughters Aubrie (13), and Katie (12).
