Beans
Built on Belief. Worn with a Purpose.
A non-profit 501 c-3 organization
It is with great sadness that we grieve the loss of this amazing young man—our son, brother, and uncle, Robinio McGraw.
Robinio’s vision for this nonprofit was to help the children of Haiti. In the past few months, with the support of Pastor Doug at Abiding Hope, Robinio made the decision to expand that vision to also support mothers in Haiti—helping provide job training, skill development, and funding so they could escape extreme poverty and move toward stability and self-sufficiency.
Through the Haitian Timoun Foundation, an extraordinary nonprofit with an impeccable track record, Beans 5258 will raise funds to support this effort. While the fundraising and accountability will remain with Beans 5258, you can rest assured that your contributions will be secure and will always reach the people Robinio wanted to support.
This nonprofit was our son’s way of giving back to his roots. It is now our way of honoring the legacy of this amazing young man. We will work tirelessly to make this nonprofit as credible, impactful, and worthy of your contributions as Robinio intended.
Robinio’s vision for his nonprofit was, and still is, very clear. He created his brand—a logo that should be worn with pride. It is a symbol that means something. It represents empathy for others, compassion in action, and a belief that we can help people in the world succeed. When you wear it, you carry a piece of his vision forward.
If you feel moved to support Robinio’s mission, we invite you to visit beans5258.com, where you can make a donation today to directly impact the lives he cared so deeply about. You can also visit the store to purchase items from his brand—each piece not only honors his vision but helps extend his reach to those who need it most.
Our hearts have been crushed by his death. Those who knew Robinio would be the first to tell you that his empathy for others was real; it was never just lip service. Please help us make his nonprofit a success. Help us honor a young man who made more of an impact in 22 years than many could make in a lifetime.
And if you ever want to simply talk about our son, please let us know. We will always make the time to honor him.
With love, empathy, forgiveness, and hope,
The McGraw Family
Sean, Dana, Sara Jo, Zaelyn, Lily, Mady, and Beth

Get to Know Me
Robinio McGraw
Hi, my name is Robinio McGraw — though most people know me as Beans.
I was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, at a local orphanage called House of the Children of the Lack. I was the only boy in the house, and I was blessed to be surrounded by love — especially from my birth mother, Micheline, who lived there with me.
I was one of the lucky ones. I was adopted and brought to the United States, beginning a new chapter that took me from Haiti to Florida, then Georgia, Las Vegas, and finally to my forever home in Littleton, Colorado. Along the way, I met my cousin Ian, and in Las Vegas, I was introduced to my amazing sisters — Sara, Mady, and Lily — as well as my mom’s extended family. Coming from Haiti, the bright lights of Vegas were a big shock, but it was all part of the journey that led me home.
I grew up in Littleton and attended Mortensen Elementary School, where I made lifelong friends and played every sport I could, including football and basketball (and a few others I tried, just for the experience). Some of my closest friends today — Jake, Jax, Will, and Caden — go all the way back to those early days.
High school was an incredible experience. I attended Chatfield High School, where I played on the State Champion Chatfield Chargers Football Team. I was honored to be voted 1st Team All-Conference and 1st Team All-State — a dream come true.
Now, I’m 22 years old and attending college in Greenville, Illinois, majoring in Criminology and playing football at the collegiate level. College life has been a blessing — my teammates are like family, and every day I’m growing in my faith and learning what it means to live as a follower of God.
While I’ve come far, I will never forget where I come from. My mother Micheline and my younger brothers still live in Port-au-Prince, where she works tirelessly to provide for them. So many others in Haiti have shaped my life — people like Father Jean Bien-Aime, who helped make my adoption possible, and Rose, who looked after me with love (even when Iszma used to bite me!).
To honor my roots and give back to the country that raised me, I created Beans5258.com — a nonprofit dedicated to raising funds, awareness, and educational support for the youth of Haiti. My brand is more than just a name — it’s a symbol of hope, family, and the belief that we are all connected.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story.
God bless.
The brand
WHY I STARTED THIS
I’ve always dreamed of creating a clothing line — a brand that stands for something more than just style. “B” is more than a letter; it’s a symbol of belief, brotherhood, and a better future.
My hope is that people will connect with the meaning behind the brand — the empathy it represents, the story it carries, and the cause it supports. When you wear “B,” you’re not just wearing a logo — you’re standing with me, my family, and the youth of Haiti.
By clicking the link below, you can visit my storefront and shop “B” clothing and other items. I’m starting small, but I have big dreams to grow the collection in the coming year.
Every purchase directly supports programs aimed at helping the House of the Children of the Lack, where I was born, as well as my mother and brothers who continue to live and work in Port-au-Prince. In addition, I plan to launch a scholarship program that will provide access to education, healthcare, extracurricular activities, and athletics for Haitian youth.
None of this would be possible without the incredible people who have supported me — including M7 Business Systems, and of course, my amazing family and friends.
Thank you for believing in the mission. Let’s build something that matters.
You Can Help
By clicking the link below, you’ll be taken to my “B” Storefront, where you can purchase clothing and other branded items that represent hope, purpose, and unity.
I’m starting small, but I’m excited to expand the collection over the next year. Your support means everything — not just to me, but to those I love most.
75% of all net profits will be donated directly to numerous 501-c-3 charitable organizations within Haiti.
In addition, I’m working to create a scholarship program that will provide access to education, healthcare, extracurricular activities, and athletics for children and youth in Haiti — giving them the same kind of opportunity I was so blessed to receive.
