Meet our Founder

Takesha Dye is a Police Officer in Grand Prairie, TX. She has been serving the Grand Prairie
community for over 9 years. She currently serves as a School Resource Officer (SRO). In her years as a SRO she has interacted with many educators and students in Grand Prairie. While working in Grand Prairie she has seen the difference in students when their teachers,
administrators, officers, parents, and the community make the decision to be a positive
influence in the life of students. Growing up in a single parent home Takesha made a decision early on to not be a product of her environment, she began to participate in sports and join enrichment programs that had a positive influence on her life and changed the trajectory of her life. Takesha decided that serving as an SRO was not enough and felt there was more for her to do within the community. She has now started TD Foundation to build a stronger youth community.
