Had a pinch me moment watching the
@beayoutiful_org meter click over our $40,000 goal on Thursday. For some organizations this may seem insignificant, but for a grassroots charity, this is life changing. You may not be fully convinced when I say every dollar matters, but if my voice can be of any reassurance, I can tell you that I’ve seen the impact of what this fundraiser will do. It WILL help reach hundreds of girls with mental wellness & confidence programs.
But this post is not for storytelling, but one to give thanks.
To every person who attended or donated, thank you for believing in BeaYOUtiful. I had a good cry Friday reflecting on a room full of 175+ humans who showed up and celebrated. In a world that currently is experiencing so much heartache, Thursday was a true example that the root of everything is love.
My parents &
@hui_brandon , you don’t just cheer me on. You step in, lend your time, support me through every step. You always show up. Thanks for allowing me to soar.
@zacharyjamesdabrowski I felt your energy through it all. Thanks for encouraging me to strive further, dig deeper and reflect in the process.
To my team. Look how far we’ve come.
