Meredith Gavin

Meredith is so excited to be a part of the Freedom Waters Foundation (FWF) family. She has lived in Naples for 3 years with her husband. They have a daughter, Asha, who keeps them on their toes.

Before joining FWF, Meredith worked in the development department of American Cancer Society for several years and worked on creating national programs for them. During that time, she received her Master’s Degree in Nonprofit Management with a concentration in leadership from Northeastern University. She then pursued her dream of working on cruise ships and joined the crew of Holland America Line. Meredith was with them for 5 years cruising the globe as head of the onboard entertainment and revenue departments. After, meeting her husband, they decided it was time to move to land. She and her husband, D, opened up a simple Indian restaurant in town called I Love Curry. Debra, FWF Founder/Executive Director, had met Meredith through the restaurant. She is thrilled to now be back in the non-profit world and is looking forward to furthering FWF’s mission.
