About The Honeygood Foundation
OUR STORY
Like most people, Didier Gbla has always been involved in helping those in need. Growing up in the Ivory Coast of West Africa, Didier saw first hand the increasing poverty level and knew he wanted to do more to give back.
Upon immigrating to the U.S., Didier met his wife, Davida, in Washington D.C., and learned she also had a passion for giving back. After relocating to New England, they met Neide, a Brazillian immigrant, who shared a similar experience as Didier. Together they began assisting friends of friends and quickly learned the need is far greater.
As the need for shelter, food, water, and other resources are becoming more demanding, we find ourselves needing to provide even more support. The Honeygood Foundation is where we can receive support from those looking to give back to people of all different backgrounds and be able to provide services and resources for those less fortunate. We are so grateful and thankful for your support in helping us put more smiles on more faces.
Meet the Team
Didier Gbla, Founder
Growing up in the West African nation of Côte d’Ivoire during a time of great civil unrest. The immense inequality he witnessed among destitute, impoverished mothers and children has plagued him for a lifetime to be the one to step up and fulfill a need. Teaming up with local families and charities alike Didier finds great solace in being a link between those in need and those with provisions. Looking to the future he anticipates the ways in which The Honeygood Foundation can meet the needs of a community. It is both his greatest pride and unsurpassable pleasure to see faces wiped free of stress, when bellies are full with warm hearts and hands.
