Nicole took this tragedy and decided to make something positive happen to help heal the community and make a difference in our neighborhoods by providing a forum for informing and reaching out to others in her community. She wants their two young daughters to not see bitterness, but see hope.
The purpose of this organization is to assist families and communities in need. We seek to promote a venue whereby people can receive and understand the resources and tools they possess and that are available to them. "We cannot afford to forget families in crisis from injustices by the courts system, police brutality, gun violence, civil rights abuse and abandonment from our own Government."
Nicole is determined to help uplift her community as her Fiancé Sean Bell was upstanding man, husband, father, son and friend to all.
