About the Founder
Serena Terry, the passionate founder behind Connect Community Outreach and the driving force of Post Healthy LLC, felt the Lord calling her to embark on a mission to foster healthier families, and communities in the local Milwaukee area.
In 2023, when she founded Post Healthy Inc, a non-profit organization, it was a response to a pressing need she observed within communities to prioritize health and care for the bodies God so carefully created. Witnessing alarming trends of obesity, premature deaths, and a departure from biblical health standards, Serena initiated Post Healthy LLC to address these multifaceted issues.
Through His love, God led Serena to do what He allows her to do. She identified a deeper need—the absence of many life skills, coupled with a widespread lack of financial literacy. This realization fueled her determination to create holistic change within the lives of individuals and families in the local area. Under the umbrella of Post Healthy LLC, Serena launched Connect Community Outreach, aiming to “connect the unconnected” and guide them towards Christ through prayer nights, free community classes, and outreach programs. The goal was to address not just physical health but to nurture spiritual, social, and life well-being.
Since its inception, Post Healthy Inc has made significant strides. Serena initiated the “Get Motivated and Get Healthy” Facebook group and hosted educational workshops, providing vital health-related information. Connect Community Outreach prepares sit-down hot family-style free meals for the community twice a month every month. Through its online presence, Connect Community Outreach also serves as a hub for community engagement and outreach. As of January 2024, Connect Community Outreach has established a brick and mortar location in Milwaukee.
Serena’s commitment extends beyond organized activities. Her efforts include providing financial assistance to those facing hardships, exemplifying a compassionate response to the immediate needs of her community. Serena is so grateful for God’s redemption and the love that God has shown her in her own personal journey, which has compelled her to share her story and continue to help those who are in need.
It is this divine love that leads her to continue helping those in need. While she envisions a world where churches, families, and communities thrive in health and harmony through their pursuit of the Lord, Serena remains humble, attributing all of her work to God’s guidance. Through Post Healthy LLC and Connect Community Outreach, she remains steadfast in her pursuit of transforming lives and cultivating community health, always with the understanding that it is God who leads her in this mission.
