My Mission
My mission for In Good Company with Brenda is dedicated to embracing women and children in shelters with unwavering support and heartfelt encouragement as they bravely heal and rebuild their lives after experiencing the trauma of domestic violence, human trafficking, and substance abuse. We strive to be a beacon of hope, fostering their resilience and empowering them to create a future filled with safety, dignity, and renewed strength.
Since May 2021 I've been on a mission to support women and children recovering from domestic violence, human trafficking, and substance abuse. It's a mission driven by personal experience and the desire to bring hope, dignity, and emotional support to those starting over.
Through In Good Company With Brenda I've built relationships with shelters across Redlands, Victorville, San Bernardino, and Upland, CA. Partnerships with organizations like The Open Door and A Better Way let me support women and children year after year.
I've delivered countless purses and gift bags filled with essentials to shelters — from Mother's Day celebrations to Thanksgiving donations — showing survivors they are seen, heard, and supported in their healing journey.
Why support me?
As a mother of four and someone who has witnessed the struggles of my own daughters, I understand the importance of healing, community, and compassion. My personal journey with my family has deeply influenced the way I approach my work — providing not just products but real, heartfelt support for women and children.
This hands-on, deeply personal approach ensures that every item I donate is filled with care and a message of empowerment.
