Dear Family and Friends,

Our dear Shahidah Peterson is preparing for her second eye surgery, and we want to surround her with the same love and support she has so freely given to all of us over the years. This journey has not been easy, and while Shahidah continues to face it with grace and courage, the financial burden is real.

We are asking those who know and love her to help in any way they can—through a donation, a prayer, or simply sharing this message. Every gift, big or small, will go directly toward her medical expenses and recovery, lifting some of the weight from her shoulders so she can focus fully on healing.

Shahidah’s heart is as bright as her smile, and we know that with the care of her community, she will come through this even stronger. Thank you for your generosity, your kindness, and your continued love.

With heartfelt gratitude,

The Petersons
