It is with a heavy heart that I reach out to you today, asking for your help in honoring the life of Alicia Hester, our Black Barbie, our Hood Princess. She was the kind of person who lit up every room she entered—full of laughter, energy, and an infectious spirit that made everyone feel special. We unexpectedly lost her, far too soon, leaving behind her 16-year-old son, who now faces a future without his mom by his side.

In this incredibly difficult time, we’re asking for donations to support her son and help cover any expenses in laying this beautiful soul to rest. Contributions will go toward celebrating her life, ensuring that her vibrant spirit and love for life are remembered and cherished by all who knew her.

Every contribution, no matter how small, will go a long way in ensuring her son has the care and support he needs as he navigates life without the person who meant the world to him. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and generosity during this heartbreaking time.
