Sarah Webb

Assistant Director of Advocacy

I was born in Logan, Utah. In addition to being one of 8 children and 2 Navajo children, who lived with us almost full time, my parents always provided a refuge in our home for refugees and foreign USU students while I was growing up. This provided me a very diverse childhood. I have always had a deep love for refugees, immigrants, and any individual in need, something I learned from my parents. Prior to joining the TSOS team, I co-founded and served for over 4 years as Executive Director of Operations at gathering Humanity Inc. which gave me the unique opportunity to work closely with the refugee community, asylum seekers, resettlement agencies, and other amazing humanitarian organizations in Arizona. I have always enjoyed any opportunity to serve in my community and I love to drag my family along with me. I have lived in Arizona for over 20 years with my husband, Chris, and my 4 boys. As a family we love to be active, we love sports, hiking, music, and traveling

What would you do if you had to leave everything behind?

By the end of 2025, more than 117.8 million people worldwide had been forcibly displaced by war, persecution, or human rights abuses — and 45 million of them are children.

They arrive in refugee camps and countries seeking safety and carrying little: legal papers, if they're lucky. A backpack. A child's hand in theirs.

What they carry that we can't see is heavier: fractured families, homes they'll never return to, professions they loved, friends and relatives they may never see again.

In a climate where immigrant stories are often ignored or twisted, we believe stories are a form of justice. When someone shares what they survived, they reclaim their voice. When we amplify it through film, photography, and advocacy, the world listens. Hearts soften. Policy begins to shift.

Because when a lawmaker sees a person instead of a statistic, and a neighbor understands instead of fears, rebuilding becomes possible.

Your support helps us share these stories where they matter most.
