About
Lioness Touch

​

Hi, I’m Danquole — the heart and founder of Lioness Touch.

​

This isn’t just a nonprofit to me. It’s a promise. A calling. A mission born from love, pain, and the deep knowing that someone has to do something different. I come from a family of veterans, but it’s my brother’s journey that truly lit the fire in my soul. Watching someone I love give so much in service — and return to a world that offered so little in return — opened my eyes to the reality so many veterans face. The silence. The struggle. The feeling of being discarded after giving your all. It shook me. It changed me. And it’s why I do this work. But my connection to this mission doesn’t stop there. I’ve faced homelessness myself.

​

I know what it feels like to have life turned upside down — to lose everything in a moment, to watch the walls of your home go up in flames, and to wonder where you'll lay your head next. That experience didn’t break me. It deepened my empathy. It gave me a heart for those who are hurting, not out of sympathy, but out of solidarity. Lioness Touch is my answer to this urgent need—a purpose-driven movement committed to restoring dignity, housing, and hope for homeless and elderly veterans, as well as displaced veterans who lack identification and need a safe place to rebuild their lives. Rooted in my own life experiences and a deep spiritual pull, this work is about standing in the gap for those who’ve been left behind and for those who still have so much to give.

​

What I Do

Currently, Lioness Touch is in its development phase.
However, our foundation is strong, built on compassion, vision, and real-life experience.

We’re working hard to:

• Establish transitional homes where veterans can heal and rebuild

• Launch job creation and empowerment programs that honor every individual’s gifts

• Build a network of community outreach and holistic care that meets people where they are, providing support and care tailored to their needs.

This isn’t just something I want to do — it’s something I’ve lived.
That’s why every step forward is done with intention, love, and a clear vision for the future.

 

What This Website Offers

This site is a space to:

• Learn about our mission and upcoming projects

• Stay informed on events, fundraisers, and outreach

• Support the cause through donations, partnerships, or volunteer opportunities

• Follow our journey as we build homes, shift lives, and lift voices that deserve to be heard

You’ll also have the opportunity to explore our community programs — including a kids’ clothing store that supports our veteran housing efforts, as well as heartfelt initiatives like our Tap-Out Program, where we stand in as a family for military graduates with no one else in the crowd.

​

Why It Matters

Because I’ve been there.
Because I know how fast life can change.
Because everyone deserves a chance to start again — with love, not judgment.

At Lioness Touch, we don’t just serve — we restore, we uplift, and we remember.

If you’ve ever felt unseen, unloved, or taken for granted, this is your home too.

Let’s build a world where every veteran, no matter their past, is given the dignity of a hopeful future.

Welcome to Lioness Touch. Together, we rise.
