When Tyler Perry wanted to help airport workers in Atlanta, Georgia who haven't been paid during the government shutdown, he was told no. According to reports, he planned to give cash directly to TSA employees at the airport. But he was told that TSA workers are not allowed to accept gifts, including cash, while on duty at security checkpoints.

On March 27, 2026, he returned to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and gave $1,000 gift cards to about 250 TSA workers. After going through the proper approval process through the TSA workers' union, the American Federation of Government Employees, the total was around $250,000. Many TSA workers have gone more than a month without a paycheck, and it’s been about six weeks. Some are struggling to cover basic needs like food and bills.

Local groups in Atlanta have stepped in with food drives and support to help families during the shutdown. Tyler Perry saw people hurting and tried to act. Even when the system said no at first, he still found a way to help. It's a powerful reminder that people still show up for each other when it matters most.

Self-care is an important and vital necessity; and is often an overlooked aspect of our lives. Practicing self-care will help with mental, emotional and physical health; ESPECIALLY with the important work that we do.

Today we surprised our staff with a FULL spa day that consisted of a chair massage, a pedi and lunch.

We just successfully finished WEEKS of "in-house" audits in preparation for our annual unannounced inspection from The office of Licensing, which has been rigorous, and in all honesty, tense.
This is our effort to show that we APPRECIATE them, that they matter, and that their consistent hard work doesn't go unnoticed!

Thank you to Ms. Michelle Harvey of Pampering & Relaxation Services, LLC for helping us to love on our staff.
