Brooke USA On The Road

About Brooke USA's Future features conversations with the organization's Chief Executive Officer Emily Marquez-Dulin, as well as Dwayne Hildreth, Brooke USA Board Member and Brooke USA Ambassador Katie Jackson. Emily Marquez-Dulin is an accomplished leader and corporate administrator with over 20 years of experience in all aspects of marketing and outreach. In her four years as the driving force behind Brooke USA’s initiatives, she has quadrupled the organization’s revenue. She is responsible for developing and coordinating the strategic fundraising and grassroots activism direction of Brooke USA, taking the lead in advising the senior management team and Board of Directors on all fundraising and advocacy matters.

Brooke USA Board Member Dwayne Hildreth can best be described by those who know him best as a loyal friend, consummate professional, and an energy giver, with a deep and passionate love for family, animals and music. He is also known in some circles as a “Super Connector” who thrives on opportunities to leverage his vast and varied network of contacts, relationship building skills, and creative mindset to help bring ideas and concepts to life. He is a 30 year veteran of Nike, Inc with a talent in understanding the “big picture” and is adept at finding the necessary resources to maintain a successful business. After losing her leg to cancer in 2015, Brooke USA Ambassador Katie Jackson is now an international para-equestrian dressage competitor. Digging deep, Katie found what brought her the most joy in life; horses. She has used this passion to triumph in the face of overwhelming adversity. Katie was named as first alternate for the 2018 Tryon World Equestrian Games US Para-Equestrian Team and has represented Team USA in numerous Nation’s Cup competitions. She is a USDF Grade V National Champion and a USDF Bronze and Silver Medalist.

The mission of Brooke USA is to significantly improve the welfare of working horses, donkeys and mules and the people they serve throughout Asia, Africa, the Middle East, the Americas and the Caribbean by raising funds and responsibly directing them to the areas of greatest need. Brooke USA accomplishes this through a holistic approach to funding which includes capacity building, sustainability programming, female empowerment and international advocacy. Brooke USA connects private philanthropists with their passion for helping relieve the suffering of working equines and their owners. Brooke USA raises funds to support a wide variety of programs for working horses, donkeys and mules to help them become (and remain) healthy and happy, now and in the long-term, which also benefits the poor families who depend on those animals to help them earn a living.
