About Gracious Heart
Meet Gracious Heart's Founder and Administrator, Mark Ngewa.
Born in Nairobi, Kenya, I have always been a hardworking, goal-oriented person. Early on in life, I helped my grandparents with their retail and transportation business, and eventually their health.
When I was just 10, my grandfather suffered a car accident that left him with a broken leg, arm, and facial lacerations. I cared for him for about 14 months until he fully recovered. I would manage his medication, wound care, transferring him to and from bed and helping him with mobility and other personal care tasks. I eventually also cared for my diabetic grandmother with high blood pressure and arthritis.
I continued caring for them until I immigrated to the United Stated at age 15. In the USA, I attended and graduated from Celebration High School in Florida. After high school I enrolled in Embry Riddle Aeronautical University to train as a commercial pilot. I also earned an associate's degree in Computer Networking from Valencia Community College.
At 21, I used the skills I gained running my grandfather's business to start a trucking company in Kissimmee, Florida, which is still in operation.
I was taught that success means attending a good school, working hard, and getting a good job. But I saw no personal meaning in working for someone else's success. So, I resigned from my retail management position and I began my personal journey to discover the meaning of my own definition of success.
My true passion is helping people in a personal and meaningful way, so I returned to my early roots of caring for the frail and vulnerable, and I started Gracious Heart Adult Family Home with my mother, Everlyn Ngewa.
I am determined, committed, and very passionate about helping senior citizens.
"At Gracious Heart Adult Family Home, they are not just residents, they are FAMILY".
