December 20th, 2024: Supporting Families, One Diaper at a Time

Dear Mahogany Mothers Circle Family,

As I sit down to write this newsletter, I can’t help but reflect on the whirlwind of emotions that this season has brought. Just last week, we celebrated my daughter’s Sweet 16, a milestone filled with joy, love, and bittersweet nostalgia. And next week, my son will turn 18, stepping into adulthood. To all the parents out there, let me tell you—it goes by so fast. One moment, you’re changing diapers and watching first steps, and the next, you’re planning milestone celebrations. These moments are why Mahogany Mothers Circle exists—to be a part of your support system through the ever-changing journey of parenthood.

Celebrating Success: Diaper Drive Recap

We are thrilled to share the success of our recent diaper drive, held in partnership with Women Crowned with Purpose and Sharing and Caring. Together, we provided essential supplies to families in need, along with lovingly handcrafted baby blankets. The smiles, gratitude, and sense of community that filled the air during this event were deeply heartwarming. None of this would have been possible without your support and our incredible community partners.

Looking Ahead: Continuing Our Mission

The success of the diaper drive has inspired us to do even more. Mahogany Mothers Circle remains committed to supporting families and fostering a sense of belonging. With your help, we aim to partner with more like-minded organizations and expand our outreach to uplift even more families.

How You Can Help:

• Make a Donation: Every contribution helps us provide essential resources to families in need.

• Shop Our Wishlist: We’ve curated a Target wishlist to support the launch of our Honey K. Fitness Club programming. Items include fitness equipment and supplies for our community initiatives.

Your generosity ensures our programs thrive and that we can continue to make a difference. Visit our website or contact us directly for more details on how to donate.

Heartfelt Thanks

To those who have already given to Mahogany Mothers Circle, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your kindness fuels our mission and enables us to continue this vital work. As we approach a new year, let’s keep the momentum going. Together, we can embrace the power of collective care and community support.

A New Chapter of Gratitude

On January 4th, I’ll be celebrating my birthday, and I am profoundly grateful to be in this chapter of life. As I reflect on the journey of parenthood, the growth of Mahogany Mothers Circle, and the incredible people like you who make it all possible, my heart is full. Next year, we’ll have even more ways for you to get involved, and I can’t wait to share them with you.

Thank you for being part of our village. Let’s continue to support one another and create a community where every family feels seen, valued, and empowered.

With love and gratitude,

Marpessa D. Allen
