Jeff Myers retired from FirstData Corporation (now Fiserv), a Fortune 250 leader in payments and technology, where he led the government sector and worked closely with state and local agencies, particularly in Health and Human Services.

After retiring, Jeff felt called to serve a Kingdom-focused nonprofit and joined Fully Furnished Ministries’ Board in 2015 through relationships with existing members. Drawn to the mission of helping families emerging from crisis, he saw potential to expand the ministry’s reach by engaging more volunteers.

He became Board Chairman in 2018 and has since led a rebranding initiative to enhance the volunteer experience and deepen impact on the families served. Jeff brings over 25 years of leadership experience to his role, helping guide the ministry in stewarding time, talent, and treasure while staying focused on its mission—to be the hands and feet of Christ through the gift of furniture.

Originally from Indiana, Jeff enjoys traveling and cheering on his favorite hometown sports teams.

Born and raised in Long Island, NY, John Dance was one of nine children in a vibrant Pentecostal family. He earned a B.S. in Criminal Justice from Niagara University in 1980 before serving eight years in the U.S. Army, where he held multiple leadership roles and rose to the rank of Captain.

After the military, John spent two decades as executive operations manager with Pepsi-Cola, leading large-scale operations nationwide. In 2011, he transitioned into ministry, serving for seven years as Director and Pastor of Operations at Victory Church, where he led nearly 800 volunteers across seven departments.

Today, John serves as Executive Director of Fully Furnished Ministries. He leads a team of over 300 volunteers and seven staff, managing warehouse operations and coordinating weekly activities that support families emerging from crisis.

Cindy brings a lifelong passion for woodworking, inspired by her father’s mentorship. She owned a custom frame shop and later ran a small business repurposing and refinishing furniture, including selling paint products for furniture projects.

Looking for a way to use her skills to serve others, Cindy connected with Fully Furnished Ministries through one of its partners. She now leads the Restoration Team, offering insight and hands-on expertise for the furniture donated to the ministry.

Cindy believes strongly in using our talents to help others and finds joy in giving new life to old pieces. She continues to build, create, and restore with purpose.

Outside of the ministry, Cindy enjoys time with her husband, children, grandchildren, and her dog.

John leads an account management team at Brighthouse Financial, using his financial background and leadership skills to support Fully Furnished Ministries.

He got involved with the ministry in 2007, when it was called “Movers & Shakers.” After volunteering with his men’s discipleship group, John began bringing his high school discipleship group to serve. Soon after, he started driving the delivery truck—creating space for meaningful conversations while delivering furniture and praying with families.

John now focuses on volunteer engagement, working to ensure that each serve day is impactful. He’s motivated by a desire to help others flourish and sees the ministry as a tangible way to make a difference and share the love of Jesus. Serving provides perspective, connection, and the chance to grow alongside others with a heart for helping.

Outside of work, John is passionate about discipling men, working out, and reading. He and his wife Kim also support ministries that serve the vulnerable, especially in areas of right to life and sex trafficking.

Rooted in her faith in Jesus Christ and shaped by personal experiences, Nicky is passionate about serving the vulnerable and offering practical support during times of need.

Krista has served as a caseworker for St. Vincent de Paul since 2009 and currently leads her local conference as President. She works closely with neighbors in need, many of whom live in hotels while trying to transition into stable housing.

Through this work, Krista connected with Fully Furnished Ministries and witnessed the powerful impact it had on families moving into new homes. Seeing empty apartments transformed into welcoming spaces inspired her to get involved more directly.

Krista joined the board in 2024, focusing on support and outreach programs. She serves alongside her husband, Matt Toddy, sharing a commitment to helping families flourish.

Outside of her ministry work, Krista enjoys spending time with her children and grandchildren and loves traveling with Matt.

Matt has a strong background in law, with years of experience in transactional law, general counsel, and risk management for a nonprofit health system. He now uses his expertise to provide pro bono legal and volunteer services to nonprofit organizations across the Atlanta area.

He became involved with FFM through his casework with the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, where he helped families transitioning from homelessness into stable housing. Witnessing the transformation FFM provides through furnishings inspired both Matt and his wife, Krista, to take a more active role.

On the board, Matt supports legal and risk management efforts and assists the grant writing team to help grow and sustain the ministry’s impact.
