Who Are We 

Picture
Celebration of Life Foundation (COL) is a non profit 501(c)3, formed in 2004 by members of the Inspirational hip-hop group, Sonz of the Most High (S.O.M), Darrell Murray, and Paris Simon, who were innocent victims in a shooting that occurred on May 31, 2003.  Their miraculous survival motivated them to give back to the community through the COL Foundation, an Outreach program encouraging community resident to “Stop the Violence” and become involved in addressing the violence in the streets to create a relatively peaceful environment to live and work.  COL also partners with other organizations to help promote and provide opportunities such as; HIV and health awareness, voters registration, and the importance of academic excellence. Since 2004, COL hosted the following annual events, Stop the Violence Week which has grown from a back yard bar-b-que to a week long event, Back to School Drive, Holiday Toy and Clothing Drive, and Feed the Homeless.
