ATLANTA - Sept. 10, 2018 - PRLog -- Harvard Group International (HGI) has announced that Dondi Dix has been selected as one the founding members of the Soldiers' Angels Advisory Council. Her role includes helping the nonprofit organization continue to grow its advocacy, public outreach, fundraising, and organizational capacity.

Dondi Dix is also currently serving as Human Resources Vice President of Talent and Organization Development for Dairy Farmers of America.

Dondi's passion for military service began in high school, serving as the JROTC Cadet Battalion Commander at Leavenworth High School, in Leavenworth, Ks in 1992-1993. After high school, she received an ROTC scholarship and attended Kansas University ROTC, serving as the Jayhawk Battalion ROTC Cadet Commander and Drill Team commander in 1996-1997.

Dondi's civilian jobs have always included a component of service to veterans.

She has partnered with America's Corporate Partners and other non-profit organizations to further these goals. She hopes to further support veterans in various capacities in her expanded role on the Solders' Angels Advisory council.
