MiracleFeet Welcomes Katja Markus to Board of Directors
MiracleFeet is thrilled to welcome Katja Markus as the newest member of our Board of Directors.
Katja brings a global perspective, meaningful connections, and deep commitment to advancing MiracleFeet’s mission. Introduced to MiracleFeet in early 2024 by our board chair, Katja was immediately drawn to the focus on children’s wellbeing.
“MiracleFeet’s mission resonates deeply with me because it combines life-changing impact with remarkable efficiency,” said Katja. “The fact that a child’s future can be transformed for less than $500 is extraordinary—and even more inspiring is the organization’s commitment to long-term support, training providers worldwide, and using real-time data to transparently showcase quality and results. I’m honored to join the board and contribute to this incredible work.”
Her passion for MiracleFeet is matched by her enthusiasm for expanding the organization’s visibility and support, particularly in Europe. As a mother of three and a recent empty nester, Katja is eager to dedicate her time to causes close to her heart—with MiracleFeet at the top of the list.
“What excites me most about MiracleFeet is the profound impact being made in the Global South—where each dollar goes furthest to transform children’s lives. By ensuring children with clubfoot can walk, run, and fully participate in society, MiracleFeet is not only changing individual futures, but also strengthening communities to meet the challenges of today. It’s an extraordinary value proposition and a mission I am proud to support,” Katja added.
MiracleFeet CEO Daphne Sorensen welcomed the appointment, highlighting the value Katja brings: “We are thrilled to welcome Katja to our Board. Her perspective, connections, and passion for improving children’s lives will be invaluable as we expand our reach and deepen our impact worldwide.”
Katja is a wonderful addition to our dedicated and passionate Board of Directors. We are delighted to welcome her enthusiasm, expertise, and commitment to ensure all children born with clubfoot receive the care they need to thrive.
