WAYWESX17 AN XAVIER BROWN FOUNDATION dba The WayWesX17 Homeless Project

The WayWesX17 Homeless Project (WWX17) is a grief-informed, justice-rooted NGO and 501(c)(3) movement architect—Texas-rooted, globally resonant, and radically restorative. We are not just a nonprofit; we are blueprint-builders for systemic change.

Unlike traditional service organizations, WWX17 transforms lived experience into scalable strategy through our signature Blueprint: Justice, Love, Legacy. We design care as logistics, activate memory into motion, and dismantle barriers with dignity, data, and radical hospitality.

As both a local nonprofit and an internationally engaged non-governmental organization, WWX17 delivers transformative housing models, holistic support services, and strategic advocacy that honor every life with dignity. Whether serving unhoused neighbors in Fort Worth or collaborating with global partners, we build pathways to independence, resilience, and systemic redesign.

We are not here to patch broken systems.

We are here to redesign them—with Love as structure, Legacy as fuel, and Justice as BluePrint.

WWX17 is a movement built from memory, justice, and the belief that every life deserves dignity. Founded in honor of Wesley and Waymond II, our work is shaped by lived experience and grounded in grief‑informed care. We serve individuals and families navigating homelessness, poverty, and structural abandonment, meeting people where they are with compassion, consistency, and respect.

We believe care is a system, not a moment. Our approach centers mobility, continuity, and relationship‑building — from camp‑based outreach to long‑term navigation support. We listen first, honor survival, and design interventions that protect capacity rather than overwhelm it.

Our values are simple and unwavering:

• Dignity — every person deserves to be seen, heard, and supported without judgment.
• Justice — we challenge charity culture and redesign systems that harm.
• Legacy — we transform loss into leadership and memory into motion.
• Community — we build partnerships that strengthen resilience and expand access.

WWX17 serves unsheltered neighbors, families in crisis, youth in under‑resourced schools, and communities impacted by generational inequity. Whether distributing essentials, supporting families through Wesley’s Diaper Pantry, or offering narrative‑shifting education, we work to create pathways toward stability, independence, and long‑term systemic change.

We are Texas‑rooted, globally resonant, and committed to building a world where care is accessible, justice is actionable, and every life is honored.
