Deiondra ‘Dee’ Walton
Founder/Chief Executive Director
Hi, I’m Dee Walton – the founder of Waltoness Helps Inc.
My passion for helping others comes from both my personal journey and my professional experience. Through my work in healthcare and community outreach, I’ve spent years connecting individuals and families to resources, support systems, and services they need. Along the way, I began to notice a pattern — many people weren’t just lacking access, they were lacking consistent support, guidance, and someone willing to truly meet them where they are. That realization stayed with me. Waltoness Helps was created from that space — not just as an organization, but as a reflection of who I am and what I believe in. A space rooted in compassion, community, and showing up for people in real, meaningful ways.For me, this work isn’t just about giving back — it’s about making sure people feel seen, supported, and never alone in what they’re going through.
