Emerald of the Sea International is a 501c3 faith based nonprofit leading survivors of sexual trauma & exploitation to the hope, healing, and freedom.

I have some news I would like to share with you.

I have completed a 2 year trauma informed virtual mentorship program empowering women to heal from trauma through the hope, healing, and freedom found in Jesus Christ! This has been one of the hardest yet most rewarding accomplishments I ever experienced as I have learned how to rebuild self-worth, shatter shame and generational cycles of abuse & trauma, and to develop healthy relationships. Enrolling in this program was one of the best decisions I have ever made and every step was worth it.

I have the opportunity to graduate in person at a formal Emerald Gala on Saturday, January. 25th, 2025 with my group of peers to celebrate all we have overcome. I would have the opportunity to share my story and get crowned on such a special night.

I am inviting family & friends to support this milestone by planning to attend my graduation or to donate toward my trip expenses to get to my graduation. My goal is to raise funds for my transportation, lodging, and meals. Your donation would be made directly to the organization and they will book my transportation & lodging once I meet my goal. Anything I raise beyond my trip expenses will go to our overall fundraising goal of $20k to help more survivors experience hope, healing, and freedom. If I don't meet my goal or am unable to attend due to an emergency, the funds will automatically go to the organization to continue to fulfill the mission!

I look forward to keeping you posted on this milestone. Just like an Emerald must go through a process to become the beautiful jewel that it is, so do I in order to shine in healing and purpose. Thank you for supporting me and for being a part of my journey.
