Who We Are

We are a registered 501(c)3 charity promoting healthy nutrition and lifestyle through education, outreach, and engagement. Our non-profit serves underserved minority communities in Virginia and abroad. We follow holistic practices, which are core to our mission and philosophy: to encourage those we serve to live longer, wholesome lives.

What We Do

We provide comprehensive services, activities, and events that cater to the mental, physical and spiritual needs, highlighting their interdependence. We utilize the whole health approach, which considers all aspects of health and wellness, to help individuals achieve a more balanced and harmonious life and to improve their overall well-being.

WHOLE

The mind, body, and spirit are interconnected, and the health of one affects the health of all. Although stress may be the root cause of chronic headaches, administering medication only fails to address the underlying issue.

HEALTH

By offering community members a chance to delve into holistic wellness and tackle the root cause of their symptoms instead of the sign itself, we believe they will see a positive impact on their overall well-being. 

A healthy outside starts from the inside.” -Robert Urich

How We Help

Our Programs

We’re committed to supporting local communities and helping people in need by focusing our initiatives in the following areas:

Behavioral Health 

Here we address mental health and behavioral disorders, including psychological and emotional well-being, substance abuse, and other addictive behaviors.

Vocation and Education

We provide practical preparation for specific careers or trades through hands-on instruction and practical experience.

Naturopathic Services

We emphasize the use of natural remedies, such as herbal medicine, nutrition, and lifestyle changes, to promote wellness and treat illness.

Nutrition Coaching

We aim to help community members improve their health and wellness through personalized dietary recommendations and lifestyle modifications.

Our Team

We’re a family of seven brothers and sisters, left motherless with uninvolved fathers.

Through the Grace of God, our mom’s historical prayer, perseverance, and our resolve to stick together, we made it through and, ironically, became service providers. We are Teachers, Nurses, Social Workers, Naturopathic Doctors, Nutrition Coaches, auto mechanics, and home repair professionals. Giving back to our community is our passion and is in our DNA.

Get to know us.

Our Why

Garnet Nelson and Dr. Carine Hallbrown, sisters, are the passionate founders of ReEvolve International Relief Foundation (RIRF). 

Our organization was formed to honor their late mother, Beryl May Peharie-Shadie. Beryl embodied service to others as a way of life. Continuing a legacy in her honor, RIRF will provide education on healthy nutrition and lifestyle to the people of the community in which she lived and served. Our vision is to provide those like the local folks living in Caenwood and adjoining districts with hope and empowerment.

URGENT CAUSE
A Home For Marria

Surprise a Homeless Mother with a Home.

Marria Mcferson has had her share of ups and downs. She’s lived on the streets, hopeless, depressed, and afraid. For years she prayed that someone would just lend a listening ear and a helping hand. The Buff Bay SDA church became her angel, and they took her in. Marria graduated  high school and married shortly after to a man with whom she’d hoped to spend the rest of her life. Due to abuse and mistreatment she had to leave the home to save her life and that of her two little children.

Help her with a stable home to raise her child and pursue her dreams of  becoming a chef.
