Meet Our Staff Here at El Paso Children’s Foundation: Omar Ropele

Omar Ropele, Interactive Media and Communications

Why you do what you do: “This is the perfect job for me. It allows me to do what I love which is journalism and making a positive impact in my community. Through all of the focus funds and service programs at UMC Foundation, EPCH Foundation and Children’s Miracle Network, I know I am making a difference.”

Years at the Foundation: 5.5 years

Favorite saying: When you were born you were crying and everyone else was smiling. Live your life so at the end you’re the one who is smiling and everyone else is crying.

Hobbies and passions: Play-by-play announcer at UTEP football and basketball games and I love to take motorcycle rides.
