Serving out of love
Meet our board members
Nellie Nellz
President
My name is Nellie Nellz, and I am the CEO and President of Serving Out of LOVE, Inc. From a young age, I felt a deep passion for helping others and giving back. Born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, I was fortunate to have a stable upbringing, yet I was acutely aware of the pervasive poverty surrounding me, a reality common in many third-world countries.
When I moved to Miami, Florida, the stark contrast of poverty and homelessness in my new community was shocking. It ignited a desire in me to take action. Throughout my adolescence, I dedicated my time to volunteering and doing whatever I could to assist those in need, and my passion only grew stronger.
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic was a turning point for me. As I searched for ways to help, I discovered that many organizations were not responding to the urgent needs of our community. That’s when I realized it was time to embrace my true calling. Thus, Serving Out of LOVE, Inc. was established to support the homeless population in Orlando, Florida.
I invite you to join us on this vital journey to combat homelessness and make a meaningful difference in the lives of those in need. Together, we can create lasting change.
Shenise Nelson
Vice President
My name is Shenise Nelson, and I am the Director of Serving Out of LOVE,Inc. My passion for helping others began at a young age when I volunteered to assist the elderly in my neighborhood. Originally from Augusta, Georgia, I later moved to Florida, where my commitment to service deepened.
One of my proudest accomplishments has been my involvement with the Heroes Program for Children's Miracle Network. Through this initiative, we not only raised funds but also brought joy to sick children by visiting them and ensuring that smiles lit up their faces during difficult times. And now I’m extremely grateful to help with our homeless initiatives.
I invite you to join us on our mission to end homelessness. Together, we can make a significant impact and transform lives.
