Pinch me! We are just three weeks away from our inaugural Hip Hope Ball, and I can hardly contain my excitement! 🎉
Reflecting on this journey fills me with gratitude. What started as a vision God shared with me has blossomed into something truly special. Living with multiple myeloma has profoundly changed the way I view life. It ignited a fire within me to spend the rest of my days doing what I’m passionate about—advocating for health awareness and celebrating the art of hip-hop.
I remember asking God, “Which path should I choose? I can’t pursue both with the same passion.” But in His wisdom, He revealed that I could indeed do both. It’s a beautiful reminder of how divine inspiration can manifest in our lives, and I’m thrilled to see His vision come to life.
The Hip Hope Ball is not just an event; it’s a fellowship of resilience, community, and the power of music to uplift and inspire. We’re thrilled to announce a huge hip-hop icon legend, along with incredible local artists as our special guest! With our amazing VIP guests from Wilmington, supportive Pharma partners, and such talented performers, this is gonna be one for ages!
If you’re anywhere near Wilmington, Delaware on February 28th, you won’t want to miss this extraordinary fellowship. Join us and witness what empowering health literacy can look like—it’s going to be off the charts!
