What's Your 50?’s Post

The other day, a friend asked me if I had any items to donate for her charity drive? Absolutely!!💯 I agreed to put some things together. One thing led to another, and I started asking around my neighborhood if anyone else wanted to pitch in - after all, we are stronger in numbers. 💪 🫶 My friend offered to pick up the items from my home, which made the process so much easier – so I offered the same service to others who were willing to donate. As I was looking through some posts on my neighborhood Facebook group, I realized a lot of people had questions about the donation process. The main questions were: where to donate and what items would be in demand? ❓ That got me thinking: when the holiday season is in full swing, we all become a little more thankful for the blessings we have and more aware of those who are not as lucky. 🙏 I realized that people want to help and contribute, but the biggest obstacle is the unknown. 🫤 In fact, the number ONE reason why people might not donate is lack of awareness. Many aren’t sure where to donate, what to donate, or how to help effectively. To make the donation process simple and accessible, because every small act of kindness counts, I decided to make the process easier by creating a simple guide. Let's make a difference this season and all year round! 👏 - KD 💗 #HolidayGiving #CommunitySupport #MakeADifference #SeasonOfGiving #Volunteer #CharityDrive #GivingBack

The BeYOUtiful Brown Girl Project was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to create a safe space where Black and Brown girls can feel empowered, celebrated, and inspired to become the best version of themselves. We saw a need—a need for mentorship, guidance, and a community that uplifts young girls, giving them the tools to discover their voices, embrace their confidence, and dream big. What started as a vision has grown into a movement, touching the lives of girls through workshops, cultural experiences, and mentorship programs. Giving Tuesday Matters! Our work would not be possible without the support of individuals like you. Giving Tuesday is a day to amplify this mission, ensuring we can continue providing these transformative opportunities. Every dollar raised helps us: 🌟 Keep our programs accessible with only a small registration fee. 🌟 Cover materials, guest speakers, meals, and more. 🌟 Create spaces where girls grow in self-awareness, sisterhood, and leadership. This Giving Tuesday, we’re aiming to raise $5,000 to keep this work going. When you support The BeYOUtiful Brown Girl Project, you’re not just making a donation—you’re becoming part of a movement that invests in the future of our girls and our communities. 🌟 Join us. Be part of the #BeYOUmovement.

Did you know that if 10,000 people each gave just $1 right now, we could feed 200 kids for an entire month? That same amount could also send more than 10 kids in rural areas to school for a full year. We have the power to make a global impact and help people around the world, but it starts with trust and commitment. I understand how hard it can be to trust nonprofits, and that’s exactly why I started this mission—ensuring that 100% of donations (excluding credit card fees) received from social media go directly to human rights issues affecting children. We've partnered with nonprofits across four countries, and next month, we are focusing on areas where exceptionally high birth rates and scarce resources create a dire need for support. A small monthly donation, just a few dollars, adds up and transforms lives. Join me in being part of the solution. Plus, as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, your giving is tax-deductible + you get monthly updates on our project + you are put into a gratitude raffle every month. Together, we can create a better future for these kids and their communities. Don't ignore the opportunity to help—be part of the solution today. 🌎🦋 #nonprofit #humanrights #hunger #poverty #solution #socialimpact
