About us

The N. Johnson Foundation was born from pain, healing, and purpose, with a mission to help every child thrive.

Founded by Nicole Johnson, MHA, and Monica Stuart, Attorney-at-Law, the Foundation supports students and families facing financial and emotional hardships, promoting educational equity, mental wellness, and empowerment at home and school.

For Nicole, the mission is deeply personal.
“I created this Foundation because I know what it means to overcome. I’m not a therapist, but I’ve lived the healing journey. This is a promise to the child I once was and others still finding their way.”

From Arizona to Belize, the Foundation provides:

  • School supplies and academic support

  • Mental health toolkits

  • Wellness workshops on boundaries and healing

  • Emergency aid for families in crisis

In Belize, we actively combat mental health stigma through school-based programs that build emotional resilience and strengthen family bonds.

We don’t just serve—we empower.

"We don’t just serve—we listen, we empower, and we walk alongside families as they create safe, thriving environments for their children.”
