Mission

Our mission is to provide cultural and educational opportunities to elementary aged children of color in systemically vulnerable communities, with a particular focus on socio-emotional wellbeing. We hope to contribute to a world where elementary aged children of color in these communities dream freely about their futures and enable them to soar.

What We Do

At Gabrielle's Wings (www.gabrielleswings.org), we believe in the "butterfly effect," which says one small change can have a huge impact.
We are a non-profit organization dedicated to giving elementary-aged children of color in systemically vulnerable communities the kind of experiences, access, programs, and exposure that Gabrielle had during her short life. We are committed to equipping children with the tools they need to soar above their backgrounds, circumstances, family history, or socioeconomic status.
Gabrielle was a kind and energetic little seven-year-old girl. She suddenly and tragically gained her "angel wings" on June 6, 2017. While her family and friends remain heartbroken over her loss, they are now focused on extending her legacy by helping other children around the world.
We are grateful to have partnered with a number of organizations on a variety of projects focused on socio-emotional health including school and camp scholarships, reading corners, children's kitchen areas, book clubs, swim lessons, backpack drives, buddy benches and more.
