Led the conceptualization, branding, and digital launch of Leighton’s Gift, a nonprofit organization created to transform personal tragedy into a mission focused on hope, advocacy, community support, and meaningful impact.

The project focused on creating a mission-driven brand experience that balanced authenticity, compassion, and professionalism while supporting fundraising, awareness, and community engagement initiatives.

The broader initiative contributed to increased public awareness, media visibility, community partnerships, and philanthropic support, while helping to turn a deeply personal story into a lasting, mission-centered organization focused on helping others.
