—and it starts with one woman, one vision, and a community choosing to show up.
Chef Dee Creations is officially launching—and you have a chance to be part of it from the very beginning.
This isn’t just a business.
This is a community-backed launch through Help A Sista Out (HASO), an initiative by Ad Astra Sankofa designed to support BIPOC women in real time as they build, rebuild, and grow.
And right now, your support can directly impact what gets built next.
Chef Dee Creations is the first official incubated project under HASO.
This is not theory.
This is not a program on paper.
This is active, hands-on support.
Chef Dee is building a culinary brand rooted in love, flavor, and experience—from intimate brunches to catered events. And like many Black women entrepreneurs, she’s doing it while navigating real-life responsibilities, barriers, and limited access to resources.
That’s where HASO comes in.
And we’re just getting started.
This blog will document the real journey—what it takes to build a business from the ground up, what support actually looks like, and how community can show up in meaningful ways.
Because the truth is simple:
When one woman builds, we all rise.
Support at this stage makes a real difference.
Whether it’s booking a service, sharing the story, or connecting opportunities—this is how we move from idea to sustainability.
Here are the most impactful ways to help right now:
Perfect for brunches, celebrations, and private dining experiences.
Help us reach more people who can support, book, or connect opportunities.
Every contribution helps move this business forward.
Markets, pop-ups, events—we’re ready.
