She recalls traveling to neighboring countries seeking refuge that included access to food, clean drinking water, shelter and medical care. Her grandmother, who she perceives as a selfless and compassionate woman evidenced by her demonstration of love and care towards others, birth into fruition the vision of Pretty Cares Inc.

Rose Karpeh, Pretty’s grandmother would buy groceries on credit to cook meals to sell, feed her children, feed people who couldn’t afford a meal and pay back her creditors. She also attended to the sick and birth babies without any medical necessities or supplies.
