Community Service
History
I began community outreach in 2016 serving Senior Citizens Thanksgiving meals. In Dec 2016, I coordinated my first holiday event at a family shelter and provided meals and holiday cheer. I planned the same steps in 2017 for Easter and Mother’s Day. The reasons I choose holidays as my community service is to ensure that homeless families feel safe, and loved knowing that on a holiday day, they are not forgotten. I have continued the same holiday service ever since.

This was how halo Heart was birthed.
