Meet Delita Cordes

Guiding Roads Foundation was founded to help individuals and families navigate life's transitions with clarity, support, and dignity. Built on a lifelong calling to serve others, the Foundation provides guidance, resources, and free educational tools — especially for those in rural and underserved communities — so no one has to face life's challenges alone.

Delita brings deep personal commitment to every person the Foundation serves. Her vision is simple: that every individual, regardless of their circumstances or where they live, has access to the guidance and support they need to move forward with confidence and dignity.

Based in Madras, Oregon, the Foundation serves individuals and families across the United States through free educational resources, personalized guidance, and community partnerships.
