Good Afternoon,
Some of you may or may not
know, but last year, I became a volunteer regional ambassador for the
National Association of Adult Survivors of Child Abuse (NAASCA).
When I have speaking engagements and educate groups on abuse, I do
refer to NAASCA as well as another awesome organization that advocates
on behalf of children. A little more than two and half years ago, I was
on a survivor panel for a televised news segment in Washington, D.C. I
met an awesome activist during that panel. She introduced me to NAASCA.
As we spoke over time, I shared that I was writing Broken Pieces. I learned that NAASCA understood and also advocated ALL forms of abuse, including what Broken Pieces
covers. After Wednesday's notification email went out and yesterday, I
was blessed to the point of tears. My fellow NAASCA family member
responded to say she wanted to support. I thank GOD for divine
connections, people and organizations that understand what it is the
team seeks to do regarding Broken Pieces. So I thank you immensely ProTek Professional Technologies Consulting, Inc. for becoming a silver sponsor!
I am also VERY grateful to The Capital Tailor, Inc., while in the midst of their grand opening this weekend(http://www.prnewswire.com/ news-releases/the-capital- tailor-inc-hosts-grand- opening-ribbon-cutting-and- private-celebration-at-new- location-in-georgetown- washington-dc-300729942.html? tc=eml_cleartime
), they have graciously agreed to supply a portion of the wardrobe for Broken Pieces.
Not to mention, the CEO, Raiza is a member of our cast and is my
company co-founder. Thank you to our gold sponsors, Rent-A-Center Laurel
and Capital Remodeling, Inc. Thank you to our platinum sponsor, Divah'
Anu Image Media. Thank you to our other silver sponsor, More Than Java
Cafe. Thank you to our associate producer and national television
producer, Stay Fly Entertainment and affiliate Brandstar Entertainment.
Thank you to the Howard County Office of Human Rights/Human Rights
Commission, Howard County Chapter of NAACP, as well as ALL of our seed
donors, advertisers, cast and crew!
"In an imperfect world, there is
no perfect family. Cheyenne, a young woman in a bi-racial and blended
family, is struggling with the knowledge of generational verbal and
emotional abuse. She fears the brokenness within her will never be
recognized. Some family wounds run generations deep. How can Cheyenne
change her family tree?" A "dramedy" that will make you laugh, cry and
think about how you interact with family.
