Give, Love, Awareness, Support

We provide a wide range of services to meet even the most daring requirements.
Founded in 2015 by LaShawn Baker, G.L.A.S Angels, Inc. is a 501 ©(3) non-profit organization that provides essential life resources and opportunities that inspire people to step outside their circumstances and pursue a better life for themselves and their family. Experiencing a life of financial stability and personal fulfillment leads to a vision of a bright future for the next generation.

I was born in Detroit, Michigan, a city with a deep history and a constant buzz of energy. Growing up in that environment taught me to be tough and to fight for what I believe in. My birth parents struggled with addiction, and as a result, I was left with my mom who raised and provided for me. My story is similar to Moses in that I was shipped off to a new life and landed in a family fortunate enough to have a relationship with God. I credit this foundation for my success and am grateful that I was able to learn about faith and spirituality at a young age.

At the age of 14, my mom married and my dad moved us to Atlanta, Georgia. It was an entirely different world for me, one that I wasn’t quite prepared for. But living in Atlanta taught me about adulthood and what it takes to succeed on your own. Being that it was such a different environment from Detroit, Atlanta forced me outside of my comfort zone. This was a blessing in disguise, as it allowed me to grow exponentially as a person.

Throughout my younger years, I struggled to make the right choices. I was rebellious and didn’t fully understand the weight of my actions. I made mistakes that could have easily derailed my future. But thankfully, I was blessed with a family who has a strong faith in God and they were always there to pray over me and help guide me back onto the right path.

My experiences have always left me with a burning desire to help those who may have missed a step. I understand the importance of having a strong foundation to build confidence and to avoid the pitfalls of life. I have never forgotten the times where I needed help and thus have resources and tools to share with those who need them. I want to be a beacon of light and hope for those who may be struggling.

One of my proudest moments was starting my first business, a nonprofit, back in 2015. This allowed me to give away valuable goods and to empower, encourage, and remind others that God loves us, despite our imperfections. I believe that my imperfections are what make me unique, and I want to share this with others.

My goal is to uplift the community in any way possible. I want to inspire people to come together and unite, regardless of our differences. I have faith that we can all come together, help each other, and become stronger as a result.

In conclusion, I am a God-fearing vessel and am grateful for my experiences. They have taught me about life, love, and what it means to be human. I hope to share these lessons with as many people as possible, in the hopes of creating a brighter and more united future.

Core Values

We like to think of G.L.A.S Angels as The Mighty Oak Tree that stands tall and firm for our community. A place where people can look back and say, I don’t know where I would be if it wasn’t for G.L.A.S. Angels.

The Oak Tree is the visible symbol of who we are, but the invisible roots are the core values that sustain and support G.L.A.S. Angels. Our society, government, and community is constantly changing, but our core values must be deeply rooted so that we do not topple in a storm.

These core values represent what we believe in, what we stand for, and how we interact with one another.

INTEGRITY

Integrity is the foundation that keeps us together. It is demonstrated through our leadership decisions, community interactions, and personal conduct within and outside the organization.

INSPIRING

We are committed to being a positive model in the community with the hopes of motivation and encouraging others to support our community and spread awareness across the globe.

CONFIDENCE

We are confident that all persons deserve support and encouragement to explore, develop, and identify who they are. We are confident that doing life together with G.L.A.S Angels correlates to a person finding strength and confidence in themselves.

PERSEVERANCE

Perseverance  is working hard, being patient, and confronting setbacks with a positive attitude. G.L.A.S. Angels is committed to being the voice for our community by carrying out our vision in spite of obstacles. “It’s easy to give up at trying moments, but it pays so much when you continue in faith.”

STEWARDSHIP

We carefully manage resources provided to us
through our donors and sponsors.
​Our goal is to develop and strengthen lasting relationships with our sponsors.
