Our Story

Help Us Keep Moving Forward — Erie Gives 2024

From a seed of purpose to nearly two decades of impact, Nurturing Hearts was born from the passion of our founder,
Shawnta’ Pulliam-Brown, who turned her own journey of overcoming adversity into a mission to uplift, empower, and guide young girls in Erie County.

What started as a small vision to help girls build self-worth has grown into a powerful movement—serving thousands of girls ages 10–18 each year through school-based programs, self-esteem workshops, leadership development, drug and alcohol prevention, and now, professional mental health counseling services for youth and families.

For over 19 years, Nurturing Hearts has been a safe space for healing, growth, and purpose, walking hand-in-hand with the next generation of Erie’s young women.

This Erie Gives Day, we are asking for your help to raise $30,000 toward the purchase of a 12-14 passenger van. This van will allow us to:

Safely transport girls to and from our programs, workshops, and community activities
Provide rides for parents and guardians in need of access to our Heartfelt Healing Counseling Services
Remove transportation barriers that often stand between families and the life-changing support we offer

With your generosity, we can continue to show up for our girls—wherever they are—and make sure they never miss an opportunity to rise.

Please consider making a gift during Erie Gives to help us keep moving forward—literally and figuratively.

Because every girl deserves a ride to her future.
