Our hearts are filled with gratitude for all who attended and supported the 2nd Annual
Mending Mothers Luncheon. It was nothing short of amazing. Mothers day is especially hard for moms like very good friend, Lekesha Benson when she made me aware of Bereaved Mothers Day and her desire to honor other moms who’ve experienced the loss of a child, I said lets make it happen! So, The Mending Hearts Initiative put our hands to the plow and got to work! This year we met new moms and and reconnected with our mom-friends from last year. It was a beautiful experience and we look forward to next year! With that being said, we want to thank all of our patrons and business donors for making this event possible: Sherry Adger-Kiddie University Daycare and Learning Center, LaCrystal Holloway- Electric City Insurance, Laneika Musalini- Women's Empowerment Conference-South Carolina, Jamie Long -Jamie Long Insurance, Wendy Woods-Loving Hands Home Care Services LLC, Renewal Life Counseling, LLC, Renewed Outlook Counseling and Solutions, 864 Legends, and Quicktrip. We’d also like to extend our gratitude to our giveaway sponsors Crystal J Scott-Elevated Apparel, Krystale Corner- NubianSignatures, KJ Nelly- KHomes, and La Vita Lush. A special thank you to Tenoia Peppers-Alexander, ’sKitchen and Devonsha's Occasions for sharing your space and providing our lunch! We really appreciate you all hosting us again this year. Another thanks to Carmelia Johnson, my babygirl NyNy and my beautiful mom Miriam Grant Pender who volunteered and filled in gaps where needed. To all the moms, we appreciate your vulnerability and trusting us with your hearts during such a challenging time in your lives. We love you all! Until next year…..
