Our Story

Starting By Any Means AVL was a journey of passion and purpose for us. The inspiration came from the powerful words of Malcolm X's speech "by any means necessary" and the community service programs during his time and the programs that followed.

Both Malcolm X and the Black Panther Party were not just advocates for the black community, but they were also active participants in community development. We are deeply moved by their commitment to uplift their communities and wanted to continue that legacy in our own way as well as add and help support others in community development. 

Our family has always been a beacon of strength and resilience, paving the way for us and those after them. We wanted to honor their legacy, by creating what our family has created for us, a platform that promotes empowerment, a space to serve and give back. By Any Means AVL is our tribute to them, a testament to their struggles and triumphs. We believe that by empowering individuals, we can create a ripple effect that will positively impact the entire community.

Starting this business was not just about creating a non-profit organization, it was about creating and building onto a movement. A movement that promotes empowerment, community support, and overall wellness. We are excited about the journey ahead and committed to making a positive impact in our community, By Any Means…
