Welcome to my corner of the web! I’m Debra Gaines, a dedicated entrepreneur passionate about providing essential services that can make a difference in our community. I have a background in business management, customer service, cleaning, health, and safety. I've focused my efforts on two distinct businesses: Gaines Royal Transport (GRT), a NEMT Transportation Service, and Enso Enterprise, a Commercial Cleaning Service, both dedicated to providing exceptional care for people but focusing on our senior population. Keep reading to see how I got started.

One afternoon, I visited my mom and sister in a city different from my own. My sister and I were happily browsing through the aisles of Walmart when my mom called. She was drained and upset, having just finished a 4-hour round of dialysis. She asked me to come pick her up. She explained that she had been waiting for an hour and twenty minutes for the bus that usually picks her up. My sister and I left the basket of items in the corner of the store and proceeded to go get Momma! As we were on our way to pick her up, my mom called, letting me know that they had finally arrived. I was seven minutes away from her at that time. I offered to still come get her anyway, but she decided to take the bus since she was ready to get home to her bed. We later talked more about her experience. That’s when I learned that she is often faced with transportation issues. Waiting an hour or more for a ride to arrive after completing 4 hours of dialysis is way more draining than people realize. Especially after her blood has dropped too low or she has had a panic attack. I realized there was a transportation need since this always happened to her. I wondered how many other seniors were enduring the same struggles as my mom. Inspired by my mom's experience, I decided to explore what I could do to help those who may be facing the same struggles. This is how Gaines Royal Transport was created.

Every business often has a deeper purpose behind its inception, and GRT is no exception. My experiences and the challenges motivated me to take action and create solutions for others. I hope this glimpse into my journey has helped you understand not just my motivations, but also the heart of what it means to be an entrepreneur. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and this business. May you continue to be blessed, as you are a blessing!

Meet Debra!
