Be You On Purpose Foundation Cover

The Vision /

be YOU on purpose Foundation was created to help single parents, teens, and others of all ages and races by providing food, housing, confidence, employment training, support and much more.

A foundation meant where those less fortunate can have a better start to get their lives back on track.  Sometimes it’s not bad choices, sometimes it’s just setting some up for success.

Since our conception, through the “be YOU…on purpose store”, DeLana has continued to give back to the community with cars, clothes, jewelry, speaking engagements and empowering those of all ages.  She has also sponsored multiple events for women and teens throughout the years and continues to add to these events.

The be YOU on purpose community subdivision is an exciting project that will not only give single moms a place to live that they will be proud of but will also. empower them to make a difference in other’s lives as they grow themselves.  Once a person builds their confidence, they can build their influence.  We want to prepare each one to experience a better life through life lessons.

Visionary / DeLana Rutherford

DeLana Rutherford is a native of New Orleans, LA.  In 2006, DeLana, along with her family, relocated to the Atlanta, Georgia area.  Her and her husband, Myles pastor a thriving multicultural church, Worship with Wonders. 

Over the years, DeLana has encountered so many people in need.  Women, single parents, teenagers and much more.  Along with her personal experience of overcoming depression and anxiety, this fueled her to develop an even deeper passion to help people.  She began the journey of “be YOU…on purpose” by simply reminding people by saying it.  Soon it turned into a shirt, a store, a book, a movement with 100’s of ladies coming to an event each year, giving away cars to help needs, an annual Christmas gathering for single moms, that she blesses with a first class dinner experience, many gifts and so much more.

One of her greatest dreams is to build a community subdivision for single moms and their children who need a little help getting on their feet.  DeLana has always supported those who need love and help. Sometimes just by simply celebrating them.  Her desire is to see many more helped through her foundation in years to come.

In May of 2016 my washer stopped draining water. I was forced to use a laundry mat. I was a newly widowed(8months) single mother of 3 boys ages 7,3, and 1. & at that point spending an extra 2 hours away from home to wash clothes was not only inconvenient but also a huge drain emotionally. In June I attended the Be You On Purpose Women's Experience which was totally life changing just like every other year. The last day I was called on stage, I thought it was just for my pastor to share my story with the women but out comes a brand new washing machine... I had no clue she knew about my machine being broken. It blessed me beyond measure and allowed that extra bit of stress and aniexty from going to the laundry mat to be relieved. I am so grateful to be a recipient of such a gift.
