Hannah Rice is the Executive Director of Circle Camps, where her background in social work, love of the outdoors, and passion for creativity come together in what she considers an absolute dream job. She has spent her career in the nonprofit sector, working with organizations of different sizes and learning something valuable from each experience. Directly before joining Circle, she served as the Director of Programs at Foster Village Charlotte, supporting caregivers impacted by foster care and creating spaces where they could connect with others who “get it.”

Hannah first came to Circle in 2019 and has been part of the community ever since, serving as a volunteer counselor, care team member, and now Executive Director. She believes deeply in the power of belonging and the communities we build when people feel welcomed, understood, and accepted as they are. She is passionate about creating a place where grieving girls can build friendships, try new things, and just be kids, knowing they don't have to navigate grief alone.

A Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work, Hannah believes in the power of community, creativity, and the magic of camp to help kids feel a sense of belonging, build confidence, and realize they’re capable of more than they imagined.
