Bringing Dignity to Those Who Need It Most

Our mission is to bring dignity to some of the most vulnerable individuals in our population—those who are often overlooked and discarded. We believe everyone deserves care, compassion, and access to basic necessities.

Our Story

How It All Began

One day, while facing a deeply personal challenge as a woman, I found myself overwhelmed by a profound realization: if this experience was so difficult for me—with access to running water and basic necessities—how much harder must it be for someone without a home?

That moment of empathy sparked DONTFORGETABOUTUS , an act of service dedicated to providing dignity through essential hygiene products. As we grew and began accepting donations, we incorporated and became DONTFORGETABOUTME —a name that honors every individual we serve.
