BEYOND  FINANCIAL & LEGAL SERVICES

Meet Our CEO

C. R. Hammed, an Atlanta native, is the founder of Beyond an Act of Kindness (BAAOK), a Georgia-based nonprofit dedicated to empowering communities through education, access, and strategic development.

With formal education in Political Science, Criminal Justice, and Legal Studies, Ms. Hammed brings a justice-informed lens to her work in financial advocacy and compliance. Her diverse professional background spans telecommunications, legal support, and financial services, allowing her to understand the systems that often work against everyday individuals — and to help them fight back.

She established BAAOK in 2019 to support professional growth, financial literacy, and legal awareness across underserved communities. That mission continues today through Beyond Financial & Legal Services, where she helps individuals navigate credit rehabilitation, consumer rights, and financial recovery with strategic, ethical support.

Ms. Hammed remains committed to fostering accountability, equity, and opportunity in every facet of her work.
