Our journey
A letter from the founders of The Aundrea Beverly Community Advocacy Foundation and GoVamo Pathways.
ABCAF being named after Aundrea Donald's mother and Beverly Nias's aunt. Aundrea was a Social Worker in the heart of New York City. Beverly was a personal social advocate for justice for the citizens of Nassau County In New York also.
Our journey to establishing GoVamo Pathways reflects our diverse backgrounds and unwavering commitment to the well-being of our community’s families. With a background in aviation as a Director of Training, I embraced precision, safety, and attention to detail—values that seamlessly transitioned into my role as an Occupational Therapy Practitioner specializing in school-based pediatric care. Inspired by personal experiences as a parent, I recognized the unique needs and safety considerations involved in transporting children and knew I could make a meaningful difference.
As parents of twins and caregivers to an adult child with an intellectual disability, we bring lived experience to the work we do. We understand firsthand the coordination, trust, and consistency many families require when navigating daily routines, school schedules, and community participation. This perspective informs our approach and strengthens our commitment to supporting families with care, empathy, and understanding.
Building on this shared commitment, my husband brings over 25 years of hospitality management experience. His expertise in fostering positive, customer-centered experiences has greatly shaped the service-oriented and family-focused culture at GoVamo Pathways.
Our venture into student transportation grew from our roles as busy working parents and my direct experience within the local school district. We observed an urgent need for a reliable, family-oriented transportation service and understood the challenges parents face when ensuring their children’s safety and well-being. This insight inspired us to create GoVamo Pathways—a service built on safety, trust, and strong community connection.
