For over a decade, I’ve built spaces of safety and belonging—founding a national nonprofit from the ground up with one belief: every person deserves protection and opportunity.

But the seed for The 99 Fund was planted much closer to home.

In early 2025, a man forced his way through my locked electric gate and up my driveway. Minutes later, my protector—Aries, was gone. He ran over her in our driveway and showed no remorse.

The district attorney filed charges: aggravated trespassing and a felony for killing her. But the felony was dropped because it was his first offense, and the state only recognizes animals as property.

But she mattered. And so does every life.

The 99 Fund was created in her honor. It exists for the unseen guardians—for those who hold the line, whether on four legs or in uniform. It’s for the families whose safety has been violated, for voices dismissed, for losses minimized.

We support both faith-based initiatives that bring hope and healing and community initiatives that protect and restore lives. Because safety, loyalty, protection, and love are values that transcend every divide.

The 99 Fund turns personal pain into collective purpose—a movement for safety, justice, faith, and community.

Join us. Give, share, speak up. Together, we can ensure no guardian is forgotten and no life dismissed.
