My Mission

Power Moves in Philanthropy exists to make bold, strategic, and compassionate investments in

people and communities. I create high-impact opportunities that uplift the underserved,

support single parents, empower youth, and restore dignity to those often overlooked.

Through intentional giving and purpose driven action, I'm making Power Moves In Philanthropy -

transforming lives and championing small business along the way.

"Philanthropy doesn't have to be large or loud. Power moves are deliberate, meaningful

actions that change lives in quiet but powerful ways. This initiative is about creating

impact without barriers or bureaucracy"
