Leaving No One Behind, Inc., is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization that works to assist individuals experiencing homelessness gain access to necessities and connects these individuals to resources that can help them transition into a more sustainable lifestyle.
I want to thank you for your support. Leaving No On Behind, Inc. stems from a personal place: my relationship with my father.
Some people battle their demons in silence, others out loud. My father is a combat Veteran who returned home to fight his biggest battle. To be a child of a Veteran is one thing but to witness your father being homeless and struggling with mental health issues makes this work personal. My father depended on places of worship, food pantries, and soup kitchens to access food, clothing, and resources. This is why Leaving No One Behind intends to be on the front lines.
Words cannot describe, in depth, the values that my father taught me. He taught me about leaving no one behind- about staying the course. He has taught me about taking care of our own and taking care of our communities. He has taught me about the importance of not turning a blind eye. He has taught me about giving what you can and expecting nothing in return.
My father taught me about the true meaning of contentment. He taught me about being pleased with what you have. He taught me about resilience: to hit "rock bottom" and have the strength to get back up. My father taught me about giving- no matter how big or small.
Wholeheartedly, I want to thank you for your support.
