Hear from our Founder

Every morning, I wake up with a heart brimmed with gratitude and a mind fueled by purpose. My journey to helping those who struggle mentally and physically is deeply inspired by my dear grandfather, Aaron Jordan. His wisdom echoes in my heart, and with each decision I make, I ask myself, "What would my pawpaw do?" He's a beacon of strength and compassion in my life. As a mother to my vibrant 6-year-old daughter, I am constantly inspired by her boundless curiosity and innocence. She motivates me to pave a path filled with inspiration and success for her future. Together, the legacies of my grandfather and the hopes I hold for my daughter drive my dedication to being a source of support and positivity for those around me.
