BUILT FROM THE ASHES
A Survivor’s Promise
On January 7, 2025, the fire didn’t just take a structure. It took my home of 30 years and my first home of 10 years. It took my elementary school, my high school, the markets where I shopped, and every street I ever knew.
When the smoke cleared, I realized I hadn't just lost my things, I had lost my identity. I lost who I was, and I became Overlooked.
I founded this organization to ensure no one else feels that way. We are here to prove that while fire can take our history, it cannot take our future.
