About Us

We're Emilio and Idalina Taylor, the passionate founders behind this dedicated organization. Our mission is to provide safe, supportive, and recovery-focused housing solutions for Foster Adults, Displaced Women, and Veterans in Central Florida. We believe everyone deserves a secure place to call home, especially during recovery and rebuilding.

Our Story Both of us have personally experienced the challenges of brief periods of homelessness. We've also seen friends and family members struggle with substance abuse and housing instability. These experiences have deeply influenced our understanding of how critical a stable living environment is for recovery and personal growth. We firmly believe that any of us could find ourselves in need of support due to an unexpected life event, a difficult decision, or an unfortunate circumstance. This awareness fuels our commitment to helping needy people through The Apiary Sanctuary Foundation.

Our Mission is clear and heartfelt: to provide shared housing solutions for Foster Adults, Displaced Mothers, and Veterans who are in recovery. We aim to offer more than just a roof over their heads; we provide a compassionate and supportive community where individuals can begin their journey to recovery and stability. By creating a nurturing environment, we help our residents build the foundation they need to thrive.
