Our MISSION
Everything we do starts with us Caring about People
Our mission encompasses advocacy, education, empowerment, and support. We strive to offer resources, financial aid, referrals, community awareness, and social support, all in pursuit of advancing towards cures.
WHAT We're doing
Hey 2026!
Let’s talk. Let’s listen. Let’s connect.
As we step into 2026, we’re leading with something simple HELLO
HELLO is our invitation to connect or for some reconnect.
It’s how we introduce ourselves in new spaces, sit down with you, and start real conversations about health, healing, caregiving, and community support.
​
This year, we’re showing up in neighborhoods, community spaces, waiting rooms, salons, libaries and everyday places, to listen, share resources, and meet people where they are.
​​​​
Sometimes HELLO turns into education.
Sometimes it becomes support.
Sometimes it’s just a conversation someone needed that day.
However it shows up, HELLO is where connection begins.
So Hello to YOU, we’re glad you’re here.

A Season of Hope
​
To every donor, partner, volunteer, supporter, and community member who showed up with generosity, compassion, and belief you made this outreach meaningful. This project reminded us that hope is built through community. Through every contribution, shared post, kind word, and act of service, you helped us uplift individuals and families and reaffirm what is possible when people come together with purpose.
​
Many have asked us about the opening chior. Pine Forge Academy Chior opened the show with their amazing sound and jouful voices. Their continued work in shaping young leaders matters deeply, and we are honored to encourage ongoing support for their mission.
