As a little girl I asked my father why God lets some of His children suffer, what followed was a lesson I will never forget. It helped me realize the importance of using our unique gifts and resources to relieve each other’s suffering.

My unique upbringing allowed me to witness a lot of kindness given and received. It cultivated a desire in me to use the gifts I was given for good. I am very excited to announce something that has been 8 years in the making, my small way of giving back.
