Our Story.

Aja and Angel CCF.jpg

Aja and Angel first met while serving in leadership roles within the youth ministry at their church. In these roles, they mentored young people, guided youth leaders, and helped develop the next generation of mentors who would go on to pour into and lead others.

 

Beyond ministry, their relationship continued to grow as they worked together managing childcare businesses, serving families and supporting organizations throughout their communities. Through this work, they witnessed firsthand the challenges many young people and families face when searching for safe, supportive environments that nurture both personal and developmental growth.

 

Aja and Angel were raised in families deeply connected to child development and caregiving. Their upbringing instilled in them a natural understanding of the importance of mentorship, structure, and compassionate care in the lives of young people. Each of them independently opened and operated businesses focused on the growth and development of young people.

 

Over time, each woman followed her own path in creating opportunities for youth.
