Our Story


iamALIVE (Accepted, Loved, Valued, Empowered), Inc. is a 501(c)(3) faith-based nonprofit organization that was established in 2023, driven by a deeply personal story that began many years ago. LaSaundra Kay Hewitt, the founder, experienced relentless bullying throughout her journey from elementary school to high school. Her struggle with suicidal thoughts, depression, and low self-esteem was a result of the lasting effects of such torment. After years of perseverance, LaSaundra found healing, wholeness, and self-worth, inspiring her to establish an organization that would provide support to youth facing similar challenges.

iamALIVE Parent Connection

At IamALIVE, we believe in the power of community and support, especially when it comes to addressing bullying and its impact on our children. That’s why we’re introducing our Parent Connection, a monthly meet-up designed to bring parents together in a supportive space where we can discuss a variety of topics related to bullying.

Join us once a month on Microsoft Teams, where we’ll cover important issues, such as recognizing the signs of bullying, strategies for prevention, supporting your child, and more. This is an opportunity to share experiences, learn from experts, and connect with other parents facing similar challenges.
