Heather Case

Before starting One Purse in 2011, Heather worked in the finance industry for 15 years. She left her role as Vice President of Servicing with Consumer Portfolio Services to become a stay-at-home mom turned social entrepreneur. She has a Master of Arts in Evangelism and Leadership from Wheaton College and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Human Resource Management from the University of Central Florida.

Heather is a dedicated wife, mother of four, and the visionary Founder & CEO of One Purse.  Driven by a profound desire to make a difference in the lives of vulnerable women and children, she recognized the deep-seated issues that plague many in her community—such as abuse, addiction, and trafficking. Heather saw the critical need to go beyond basic support services. She understood that true empowerment involves breaking free from cycles of violence and dependence, and that economic freedom is a key part of the solution.

Under Heather’s leadership, One Purse has become a beacon of hope, offering not just safety and recovery, but real chances at economic independence. Through targeted employment opportunities in our social enterprise and educational support via scholarships for college or vocational training, One Purse helps survivors build new futures. Heather believes in the power of financial independence to strengthen individuals and families for generations to come. Join Heather and the One Purse team in their mission to empower more women to live healthy, wholehearted lives.
