Child & Family Advocate
Biography
Sapphire Jule King's divine calling is to improve the quality of life for
families and children. She began her service to others while just a
child herself. At age nine, Ms. King started tutoring neighborhood
children in math, and her affinity for helping kids achieve that
academic 'aha' moment grew stronger as she grew older. Thus,
after earning her bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Ms.
King moved to Phoenix, Arizona, where she pursued her community
service work in earnest.
She continued to tutor disadvantaged youth and adults struggling
in reading and math pro bono. Moreover, she served as the
Activities Coordinator for homeless children at a Phoenix shelter,
Youth Oratory Contest Judge for the Arizona Optimist Club, and
Acting Coach and Assistant Director for a Native American Outreach
theatrical production with Actor's Workout, Inc. Ms. King's devotion
to her work was solidified when she received recognition for the
After School Creative Writing Program she created and taught to
middle schoolers in an alternative charter school. Big Brothers/Big
Sisters of Central Arizona also awarded her for outstanding
commitment as a Big Sister. In those two moments, she understood
the greater impact her efforts had on improving the lives of others.
Simultaneously, Ms. King volunteered for four years as a Recovery
Coach for teens and adults addicted to alcohol and other
substances. Likewise, she served a two-year term on the board of the
National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence in Phoenix.
Ms. King consolidated her volunteer work when she founded
International Freedom Coalition in 2009—a nonprofit dedicated to
building strong families to eradicate child maltreatment worldwide.
