Ashanti Omari Morgan Foundation

About Us

let's assist others

Enter the heart and soul of the Ashanti Omari Morgan Foundation, where the indomitable spirit of a mother’s love meets the enduring legacy of a remarkable son. Jo Morgan, our Founder and President, is the architect of this extraordinary journey—one that transcends tragedy and pulses with the heartbeat of Ashanti’s loving spirit. Jo Morgan, at the tender age of 20, was not just a victim; she was a force of compassion, a shining light in her community. When violence stole him away, Jo made a solemn vow to honor him not with tears, but with a legacy that mirrored the very essence of his being.

Ashanti’s heart beat for helping others, for making a difference in the lives of those around him. In his memory, Jo poured everything—her grief, her love, her resilience—into the creation of this foundation. The Ashanti Omari Morgan Foundation is not just an organization; it’s a living, breathing testament to the boundless love between a mother and her son.

Jo’s vision is a symphony of emotions—a harmony of grief transformed into purpose. It’s a vision that goes beyond the pain, reaching into the depths of empowerment and community upliftment. Every program, every initiative, is infused with the spirit of Ashanti, a young man whose legacy is marked by selfless acts of kindness and unwavering support for his community.

As we join Jo on this soul-stirring journey, we become part of a story that goes beyond words; it’s a narrative of resilience, empowerment, and the unwavering belief that even in the face of tragedy, love can triumph. Together, we honor Ashanti’s memory not only with tears but with a resounding commitment to making a lasting impact on the lives of those who need it most.
