Destination Chicago for Anthropology & Journalism

I hope this message finds you in good health and spirits.

Join me in celebrating my daughter Latricia “Tugga”, a Young Black Queen, as she embarks on her next chapter as a Freshman in College. I am so honored that she chose me as her mother on this journey and very proud of her achievements thus far. Latricia graduated high school with honors and has served in the community from the womb. She will be the first in my family branch to enter higher education with the full campus experience. She’s off to the east coast to study anthropology and journalism, to continue to give voice to our lived experiences.

We are humbly reaching out to you with open hearts to ask for your support in helping send her off to college and setting her up successfully for the first year. I need an additional $5,000.00 for the transition into college life. I am reminded that none of us accomplishes anything without the rest of us, and it truly takes a village to invest in our Black brilliance. I do not take for granted the love and support we provide each other in the community.


Latricia and I will drive cross country for this special occasion to drop her off at college. As the primary parent, I need additional financial support to ensure a successful sendoff.


The financial support from your generous contributions will allow us to cover:
1.) Transportation and lodging from Seattle cross-country to take supplies for her dorm room;
2.) Books and Supplies - the necessary academic materials to aid in her studies; and
3.) A portion of essential living expenses that will not be covered by financial aid.

Every dollar you donate will have a lasting impact on Latricia's (Tugga) life, helping her build a brighter future and achieve her dreams. We understand that not everyone can contribute financially, and we continue to welcome thoughtful prayers, positive vibes, and well wishes.


Please share this campaign with your network to support a Young Black Queen doing her “thang”!

Thank you for taking the time to read this and consider supporting Latricia's educational aspirations. Together, we can be the catalysts for positive change in the life of this remarkable young woman.

With heartfelt gratitude and to you in love,
