Your Visionary
Founder & CEO
🧡 My Name Is Tyrese Smith, and I’m the Heart Behind United Elevation.
United Elevation was born from a deep desire to see lives changed, communities restored, and faith put into action. I didn’t just wake up one day and decide to start a nonprofit, this is a vision God placed on my heart, and I’m simply walking in obedience.
💛 Family
I’m a proud native of Newnan — born, raised, and a graduate of Newnan High School. Family has always been at the center of my life, and those roots have shaped the values I carry into this mission. Being family-oriented means leading with love, loyalty, and accountability — and that’s exactly how I plan to serve this city. I’m fully committed to building real connections, creating lasting impact, and helping elevate the very community that raised me.
