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.

Ms. Shirley previously told PEOPLE she was inspired to help the homeless after her eldest son, Demetrius, overdosed on a relative’s medication just five days before his 3rd birthday on Sept. 6, 1990.

“We rushed to the hospital,” she recalled. “I tried to keep him awake on the drive. He kept wanting to go to sleep. I tried to make him walk into the hospital, but he just kept telling me how tired he was.”

She continued, “I just said, ‘I love you very much. Mommy is going to always love you,’ and he said he loved me, too. I walked him into the hospital, and I don’t remember a lot after that.”

Ms. Shirley is survived by her mother and her children – Danielle, Rashawn, Dalvion, Macajiah and Micah.

In a recent livestream video, Ms. Shirley told viewers that she woke up with no memory of the past few days. She had unexplained bruises on her arms, and suspected she may have been drugged.
