Lillian's 4K x 40 Birthday Fundraiser

My 40th birthday is around the corner!

I decided to make it even more special by incorporating something that's close to my heart. 

I'm raising money for Girls Inc. DC, a life-altering program for young black girls. Girls Inc. DC is an organization that positively impacts the lives of young black girls.

https://www.girlsincdc.org/ 

 

My life's purpose is completely aligned with the organization’s statement that "We recognize that poverty, prejudice, and inequality continue to hold some girls back and we work with girls to overcome obstacles caused by those systemic barriers."

 

Girls Inc. DC can alter the life outcomes that are too often predicted by zip code for girls of color. My life outcome was shifted into a dimension that shattered the generational pattern of poverty for my family. It all started with my participation in a program like Girls Inc DC., aiming to make a difference in the lives of young black girls in Washington, DC.

 

This is why I joined the board of directors, and I will do everything to lift the organization and the young girls it serves.

 

Please join me in this movement to support the success of young black girls in Washington, DC.
