Hello, my name is Dashia, and I am the founder of The Angel Nest Inc., a nonprofit built from the belief that pain can be turned into purpose, and struggle can be transformed into service.

As a young Black woman, a mother, a social worker, and someone who knows what it’s like to fight for stability, I have always promised myself that when God lifted me up, I would return that blessing to someone else.

Now, I want to honor that promise in Makoko, Lagos — one of the most underserved communities in the world. Makoko is a place most people only see in documentaries… but to me, these are real people with real stories, real hearts, and real needs.

On my next trip to Lagos, I am organizing a feeding outreach to provide:
• Fresh hot meals for 250+ people (the more, the better!)
• Home goods + hygiene bags
• Menstrual pads for girls & women
• Baggies with soap, toothbrushes, sanitizer, laundry detergent, seasonings & more
• Volunteer support shirts for our team

No one should feel forgotten. Not a child. Not a mother. Not a single soul.

This outreach is our first major international mission, and I cannot do it alone.
I am humbly asking for your support. Any amount — even $5 — will make a difference.

⏳ Campaign Goal: $900-$1,200 and my promise is that EVERY penny goes to this campaign!

(Every dollar directly funds meals + supplies + catering)

How You’re Helping

$5 = Hygiene bags
$10 = Feeds 10 people
$20 = Feeds 10 + supplies
$50 = One full family support pack
$100 = Supports 1/6 of our entire outreach
$250 = Direct sponsor for 60+ meals & baggies

We rise by lifting others.
Your donation isn’t just money — it’s dignity, hope, and a reminder that humanity still cares.

Whether you donate, share, pray, or cheer from afar:

You are part of this.
This is our mission.
Nobody is left behind.

From my heart to yours —
thank you for believing in this mission.
Thank you for believing in The Angel Nest Inc.
Thank you for believing in people the world has learned to overlook.

With Love & Gratitude,
Dashia
