Founders Corner

       Brandi Robinson is a serial entrepreneur, mom, and community activist. She is the beloved Founder of The STILLHERE Village. An anti-gun violence organization specializing in serving at risk youth. Brandi has been called to create safe spaces for acceptance, healing & success. A mission she began in 2015 after gun violence tore a hole in her family. Brandi’s God given gift is to convert each unfortunate circumstance thrown her way into a steppingstone. A gift she uses to lead a dedicated team to executing the overall STILLHERE mission.  

       Brandi brings her humble beginnings and strong work ethic from NYC to the Trenton-Mercer area of NJ. Along with her executive board, Brandi has designed STILLHERE’s Youth Enrichment Program around the Positive Youth Development Curriculum, resiliency training and LOVE. Brandi’s business acumen is derived from several years of experience in the culinary arts field. As well as her experience from several government and corporate sector environments. Including but not limited to NJ notary public services, Safe SERV Certified, and a Trauma Informed Healing Agent. Overcoming domestic violence, gun violence, and family addiction issues took lots of prayer, therapy, and resiliency. Three things you will find throughout The STILLHERE Village [prayer, counselling services, and resilience].

      Brandi uses her skill sets from her former catering business (TasteBudz Delight LLC) to assist in the development of her communities. Touching lives through service is a passion she inherited from her maternal and fraternal Grandmothers, two pillars in the NYS Foster Care System. As a true student of life Brandi takes nothing for granted and leaps at the opportunity to advance her communities. Creating safe spaces for acceptance, healing and success is not some cliché mission statement, for Brandi, it’s a lifestyle.
