I’m so proud of every single supporter of TSM. It was truly so heartwarming to see everyone share and rally over on Instagram. Thanks to all of your support, “Texas Speech Mom, LLC” was able to raise $1,016 in 24hrs. I’ve made the donation to on behalf of everyone that helped make that possible. There are MILLIONS of children that need help. I know I can’t save all of them, but I’m proud to support because I know he won’t give up. I am in awe of everyone involved with Operation Underground Railroad and continue to pray for the men and woman putting their lives on the line in order to rescue the children. (Link in comments)

Real talk: I’m a fixer. If I see a problem, I become laser focused on figuring out how to fix it. This is probably why 2020 has been such a struggle for me. We’ve been faced head on with major, life changing, learning experiences (that have been going on for centuries) and I am not physically able to “fix” any of them. I can’t make the virus go away. I can’t make racism disappear. I can’t save every child. So where do we go from here? Educating ourselves is huge. Speaking out and bringing awareness is huge. Donating to organizations that have the ability to physically make a difference is huge. Volunteering is huge. However- NEVER let someone tell you that what you’re doing is not enough. If you can’t volunteer- that’s ok. If you don’t have the funds to donate- that’s ok. All that matters is that you consciously make the decision to stay aware, continue to learn, and SPEAK OUT. Focus on what YOU are doing to become a better human in this broken world. It’s better than nothing.

The work doesn’t stop here. I will continue to learn and share ways to give back. It’s not going to fix all of the problems in the world, but it’s “all the good that I can do”.
