Dear ones,

I hope you’re ready to celebrate because this is HUGE.

The Firecracker Foundation is one of 10 grant recipients to receive $75,000 a year, for the next 3 years from Just Beginnings Collaborative. All told, that’s $225,000 to build the capacity of the work you started with me.

Click HERE to meet the organizations, their leaders and 8 incredible fellows!

This means more high quality consistent therapy for child survivors of sexual trauma, more caretaker support groups, more trauma sensitive yoga therapy and more advocacy. This means more of the holistic healing services you believe in.

More than 100 organizations applied for this honor. The healing you bring to the children in this community is worthy of support on a national level.

You should be proud.

Also – I have been included in a national cohort that will learn collectively and lend our unique and diverse experiences to ending child sexual trauma while working to heal those suffering.

This grant award is not about changing the mission of the foundation. It’s about supporting the work you’re already doing.

Because you’ve created something extraordinary.2016_FFCalendar_Print8

All ablaze,

Firecracker Sig
