The Road to Healing
By Dr. Shaquetta Barden | Executive Director
![]()
The road to healing is no easy one. Healing is a unique journey that no one has to do alone. While the internal work needs to be a one on one experience, reaching the goal can be with those that support you in the best way emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
These packages are tailored to the needs of the recipients, but they include:
- Personalized Healing Tools: Journals, affirmations, and mindfulness coloring books.
- Comfort Items: Cozy socks, blankets, or stress-relief toys (e.g., fidget spinners or stress balls).
- Self-Care Products: Bath bombs, soothing lotions, candles, or essential oils.
- Educational Resources: Booklets on coping strategies, emotional well-being, and mental health.
- Encouraging Messages: Notes of hope and encouragement from other volunteer to let the recipients know they are not alone.
- Resource sheet: Therapist, counselors, support groups, mentoring programs etc.
All of these factors have assisted in ensuring that our care packages are most impactful to all youth. Thank you all for your doantions and support. We are extremely greatful to have other believe in our vision and goal for this project.
Please feel free to share our project with others, and continue to donate.

Peace and Love Family,
We hope all is well. With so much going on in our world right now, we want to make sure our mental is stable. This looks different for everyone because we're all different and experiencing difference battles in our life and mind. So, remember to be kind not just to others but to yourself. Kindness goes a long way and can save a life.
This project was struggling at first, but the support has picked up tremendously and we truly from the bottom of our hearts, appreciate each and everyone of you. Thank you for trusting in our ability to be able to provide care packages to youth who have experienced any type of abuse. Small and big gestures go a long way. The power of love and support is huge to those that need it during that time.
We still have donations coming in, but we are searching for all of our items that we need to order to curate our care packages. There is still many things that need to be found. We still need more help. Our packages will include items that will assist youth with not just dealing with the trauma that can come from abuse, but also the acknowledgment which is one of the biggest set backs for survivors of abuse. We look forward to serving those that we can and want to thank our supporters for allowing us to be used as vessels to those in need. Thank you so much. Please continue to donate and share with those you know.
Peace Family,
G.I.R.L. Power

Greetings Family,
Thank you for your donation. We still have a long way to go, but as we continue to raise funds, we're also spreading awareness about the importance of youth who have experienced abuse and how they need assistance on their journey to healing. Self- care is not an easy thing to learn, it's versatile and looks different from person to person. With this in mind, our goal is to create care packages that can be useful to everyone who may receive one, regardless of their experience with abuse.
If you are in the position to donate again to our cause, we thank you. However, if you're not we understand and are so greatful for your blessing thus far. Please share our project with all that you know. It will help us reach our goal. Thank you so much.
Peace & Love
G.I.R.L. Power
