It was such a lovely evening celebrating our longtime pastor and First Lady - Bishop Kenneth C. Ulmer and Togetta Ulmer. So many friends came out to the backyard soirée given by Dr. Pearl Grimes including Mayor Karen Bass and Tavis Smiley.

Lavender is one of the colors of my foundation - the S.H.A.U.N. Foundation for Girls - so I love being on theme when we have a celebration. Last week… Heading to our 7th Anniversary reception! 💜
Hope you can tune in to Part 2 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way Tell All this weekend!
Sharing a few pictures (more to come!) of our beautiful evening celebrating the 7th Anniversary of my nonprofit, the S.H.A.U.N. Foundation for Girls. So blessed and thankful for the support of dear friends since I have been on this journey to create an organization that will help uplift and empower underserved and underrepresented girls and young women. 💜 (Second pic) Our #MAGNOLIA Award honoree, my friend, the amazing Debra Lee, former CEO of BET Networks and author of the new book, ‘I AM DEBRA LEE’. The Magnolia, is the symbol of our foundation and symbolizes strength and beauty and Debra was the perfect honoree! (Third pic) I love talking about our mission!

I love this organization! I was invited to speak to the young ladies of Black Girls Film Camp during their recent field trip to LA. This incredible nonprofit is helping to nurture the next generation of female filmmakers. I spoke about my career as an Emmy Award-winning journalist and my journey to becoming a television film producer. #BlackGirlsFilmCamp is one of the S.H.A.U.N. Foundation for Girls newest partners and we are proud to support their mission!
