6th Annual Birthday Community Event

First, Heavenly Father, thank you! I am grateful that you have continued to bless me to be a blessing for the sixth year! Secondly, as you all may know, I would rather give than to receive and as a result, each year for my blessed birthday I look forward to giving back and blessing those within the community of my home city, Charlotte, NC. 💛💛

This was my third year asking for support and you all truly blessed my spirit and 300 unhoused women, children and men by donating items and $1,270.00 within three weeks! Each year the amount of donations (monetary and items) received increases, as well as the number of people we bless and by that, I am truly grateful for everyone who donated, volunteered and showed much love! 💛🥹

Your monetary donations were used to purchase food and items to fill blessing bags which included: a sandwich, an apple, banana, orange, bottled water, toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash, bar of soap, washcloth and more! As they received their bags they smiled and took the time to express gratitude! 🙌🏾✨

Special thank you to my amazing family, friends, church family, West Charlotte High School family, my West Charlotte flag football players, who almost made me cry 🥹😭, Winston-Salem State University Ramily, Mad Miles Run Club family, Eastway family, flag football family, Ms. Jonelle and Colgate for your amazing love, support and contributions! Know that you did something beautiful today that brought much joy into many people’s lives! 👏🏾👏🏾

I pray that this will cause a ripple effect and inspire others to be a blessing and give back to their community in some shape or form. 💛✨

As always, Be Great and Elevate! ✨

Love y’all, Demetria A. Stewart 💛✌🏾
