BEHIND MISSISSIPPI HEROES IS THE
THE ❤BEAT
At the core of Mississippi Heroes is a powerful truth: behind every ramp built, every caregiver honored, and every life touched—there are real people who make it happen. This page is a tribute to the heart, grit, and leadership that keeps our mission moving forward.
Meet the dreamers, doers, and difference-makers who serve behind the scenes—and often on the front lines—of compassion.
❤ Our Founder
katherine sutton, executive director
Katherine is more than a community leader, event visionary, or REALTOR® - she’s the original heartbeat behind Mississippi Heroes. With deep ties to the Gulf Coast and an even deeper calling to serve, Katherine created this movement to give back to those who give everything: caregivers.
Her passion sparked a grassroots effort that’s now built ramps across counties and recognized unsung heroes in every caregiving role imaginable.
Her leadership continues to inspire partnerships, volunteerism, and statewide change.
❤ Our Board of Directors
Our board is a powerful collective of professionals, advocates, and big-hearted individuals who bring their expertise and connections to the mission. They guide the strategic growth of Mississippi Heroes and ensure our values stay front and center.
