The chance for Daniela to join the Black Mother's March on the White house

Posted May 5, 2023
Daniela is asking for support to attend The Black Mother's March on May 14th in Washington DC. This coalition of black-led organizations exists to expose the systematic attacks on black women and the black family by the U.S. government. Daniela is interested in advocating for herself, her community, and most importantly for her son, while she helps to bring focus on the need to help address the many concerns about the safety and welfare of our Black children. She is interested in being a part of an event to dismantle the systems that have adversely impacted her direct community and create safe and supportive environments for Black children and families.

Daniela is 21 years old and lives in CA

This young person is resilient, creative, just an overall great person. This youth comes from humble begins and had a stent within the juvenile justice system. She has had the opportunity to turn her life around is currently residing in a TAY Housing program, in school full time, and recently became a new mom. This youth is involved in an organization called, The Parktakeover. Parktakeover is an organization where families get together and take over the park. Daniela has been volunteering since before she gave birth and now volunteers as a mom to keep an eye on the children while they play, so the parents can get a break. During parktakeover, recently the youth heard about an event called The Black Mother's March. She is wanting to attend, but cannot afford it. This event takes place from May 12- May 14, but she is asking to fly out the evening of May 15 in order to get assistance traveling with her son, from her mentor. We understsand this is a big request and last minute, but anything can help. She is asking for funds for both her plane ticket, food, hotel ( there are group rates where other moms are staying) and transportation cost while she is there.
