The Daisie Foundation is a living legacy in honor of the late Daisie Robinson — a woman of valor, grace, and unwavering faith. More than a mother, wife, grandmother, and aunt, she was a true pillar of her community, known for her kindness, resilience, and belief in the power of service.
Daisie was a family woman who wore many hats with grace and purpose. Whether she was raising her children, working multiple jobs to provide for her family, or encouraging those around her to persevere through life’s challenges, she led by example. Her life was guided by faith and an unwavering belief that obstacles aren’t roadblocks — they’re opportunities to rise.
“The most rewarding fulfillment is knowing how you impacted someone’s life.”
Her message was simple yet profound: remain humble, stay kind, and always serve others. Today, the Daisie Foundation carries her legacy forward by spreading kindness and creating opportunities for women and children in the communities we serve.
“It's a blessing to be a blessing!”
We are committed to empowering women and children through community partnerships and meaningful outreach. Our work focuses on creating opportunities and exposure for those in socioeconomic communities, because we believe that exposure is the greatest pathway to success.
Through random acts of kindness and special projects, we aim to bring joy, hope, and life-changing moments to families, students, and professionals — reminding them that they are seen, valued, and loved.
At the Daisie Foundation, we believe that small acts of kindness spark big change. Through our core programs and events, we create opportunities that uplift and inspire the communities we serve:
Like the flower she was named after, Daisie Robinson stood for new beginnings. Even the daisy itself represents the unity of two different flowers blended together in perfect balance. And through our relationships with generous donors, partners, community organizations, and business entities, we aim to strike that same balance between passion and action.
Through our ongoing philanthropic efforts, the Daisie Foundation continues to uplift and support first responders, healthcare professionals, mothers and fathers, children, teachers, and beauty professionals across the country.
From surprise experiences that spread joy, to grants that help beauty and barber school students and artists advance their careers, our mission remains rooted in empowering women and children to lead brighter, more hopeful lives.
To date, our initiatives have reached thousands of children, women, and families—providing meaningful support and resources that foster growth, resilience, and opportunity. We’ve also awarded financial grants to aspiring beauty and barber professionals, helping them pursue their dreams and build sustainable futures.
With each passing year, our impact expands—thanks to the generosity of our supporters and partners.
