Organizational History
Shawnta’ Pulliam - Founder of Nurturing Hearts and President of Shawnta’ Pulliam Arise LLC
Shawnta’ Pulliam took a traumatic childhood, impacted by parental drug addiction and incarceration, and turned it around for good.
Dominique Kafando struggled to stay in school just 12 months ago. The Central Career and Technical School student had D's and F's on her report card, and had been assigned to Central's alternative-education school. "I was missing a lot of classes," said Kafando, 18. "I didn't care much about school." A teacher referred Kafando to Nurturing Hearts, a local nonprofit organization that provides leadership and life skills for teenage girls.
