​University of Texas Track Star and Olympian Raasin McIntosh, traveled to West Africa before the 2012 London Olympic Games. There she discovered her true passion competing in front of thousands of fans;

" Be the light so that others would be truly inspired to rise above adversity."

Today she continues to "Be the Light" and uses her talents, successes, and past experiences as a platform to serve communities to the highest level through the implementation of beautification projects. She is proud to call East Austin home to the legacy of Raasin in the Sun.
