Our Story & Enduring Legacy
Not 1 Second was established in loving memory of Leslie Elliotte Stubbs and Chisomo Tsaka, who both passed away in 2025.
When individuals touch lives with quiet kindness, sacrificial generosity, and steadfast devotion to others, their impact does not end with their earthly departure. Not 1 Second was conceived out of this deep conviction: that grief can be transformed into purposeful, hope-filled service.
Their lives embodied compassion, service and commitment to the wellbeing of others. Rather than letting time slip away or allowing despair to prevail, the name Not 1 Second affirms that not a single second of God-given opportunity should be wasted when it comes to serving those in need, mentoring young people, promoting health and caring for creation.
