			Angelia L. White Publisher & CEO Hope for Women Magazine www.hopeforwomenmag.org In 2000, Angelia first had the thought of developing a Christian lifestyle magazine – a magazine filled with real women, real stories, real life issues, and real hope. With a God-given passion she began planning her lifestyle magazine. When she lost her father and her grandmother within two months during 2005, White was reminded of how short life is, and she knew it was time to take concrete steps to fulfill her dream. White didn’t know where to begin to fulfill her passion. But as she trusted God to lead her, He guided her all the way – opening and closing doors. He provided the right people at the right time, and blessed her with a supportive husband, family, friends, and an incredible mentor who not only believed in her vision but helped to make it a reality. With a wonderful team of dedicated individuals at her side, in September, 2006, she launched Hope for Women. White serves as publisher of Hope for Women magazine, which is produced by her company, Virtuous Publications, Inc. She, her husband, and four children make their home in Muncie, IN, where the publication is headquartered. One-on-One Appointments
