Milena's Story
In the wake of the devastating loss of her son, Jonathan, and his friend, Charlie, Milena embarked on a journey to turn their tragic deaths into a positive force for change. The murders of other children, Chelsea King and Amber Dubois, further fueled her resolve. Milena found the courage to say "NO MORE!" and dedicated herself to our organization's mission.
About Me!
Milena was welcomed into the world by her parents, Robert B. and Dorothy L. Wheeler, at Barberton Hospital in Barberton, Ohio. As the eighth of eleven children, she was never alone, growing up with six sisters and four brothers. Her home was always filled with laughter, chaos, and the warmth of family.
Milena is a wife, mother of six beautiful children, a nurse, foster parent, actress, and she is very active in the community. She married Clyde Phillips on March 21, 2008, which she considers to be the happiest day of her life.
Milena is an award-winning actor celebrated for her performances in films, television, and on stage. With her children cheering her on, she brings warmth and passion to every role, inspiring audiences everywhere.
Milena is truly thankful to God for the strength He has given her to continue her essential work. With the Jonathan Sellers and Charlie Keever Foundation, she is devoted to promoting child safety and sharing His love with those in greatest need.
