Shirley Raines, founder of Beauty 2 The Streetz and homeless advocate, was discovered deceased at her Las Vegas home on Tuesday, January 27. The nonprofit founder, known as “Ms. Shirley,” was 58.


Ms. Shirley’s youngest daughter, Danielle, called police to conduct a wellness check on Jan. 27 after she couldn’t get in contact with her mom.


Authorities found Ms. Shirley lying “unresponsive” next to her bed with “no visible signs” of foul play.


An autopsy was conducted to determine the cause of death.


Danielle told PEOPLE, “her life and her legacy is a testament to the fact that you don’t have to be perfect to do something powerful and meaningful.”


A GoFundMe raised over $215,000 for Beauty 2 The Streetz to continue its mission of feeding the homeless.


The mother-of-six was known for distributing food and hygiene products to homeless people living on Skid Row in Downtown Los Angeles, CA.
