ROSEMARY THATCHER
As the Director of Development for The Matthew 25 Mission, Rosemary Thatcher strives to live a life of love and service, sharing the passion of giving to this ministry that seeks to improve the quality of life for the less fortunate in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. God is looking for people that are ALL IN.
Growing up in a Christian household in Singapore and later Australia, Rosemary developed a strong foundation of faith from an early age. However, it was through her personal journey and experiences that a deeper, more intimate relationship with God was formed. Rosemary developed a strong sense of serving while volunteering, establishing programs for children after school, packing meals to be distributed to the homeless, serving meals, and volunteering at church. Passionate about helping others, “What You Do For The Least, You Do For Me…” is her vision to eliminate hunger, homelessness and poverty, and believing that every human being has the right to access life’s basic human needs.
Rosemary’s corporate career began in Public Relations, BP Australia and continued in Minneapolis, MN at the Toro Company. She enrolled at the University of Minnesota to pursue a Studio Arts degree and resumed her career co-managing Cold Water Creek, a highly successful women’s clothing store after taking time off to start a family. Rosemary continued managing at Chico’s in St. Paul, MN and then St. Petersburg, FL. She started her own photography company and is active in wedding and portrait photography.
Rosemary is the mother of two grown children and enjoys gardening, reading, photography and spending time with her two-year-old grandson.
