A few months ago Michael A. Embry Sr and I put on an event 1st Annual Unity Networking & Awards Night on behalf of Focus Forward with Robin and Rising Stars Talent Group.
We made a prior decision that donations that came in would be given to a non profit of choice. Well, last weekend, Michael who lives in Virginia went to Chicago to meet up with Elizabeth Gerald TF to personally hand her a check for $500 while she was hosting one of her community give back events.
Ms Elizabeth is one of the 2023 Professional Maximizer award recipients. She gives back to community throughout the year organizing events for kids. She has been featured on Oprah talking about the suicide of her daughter Marcie where prompted her to start her organization in 2016, The Marcie Jones Gerald Movement (MJG Movement)
The documentary is now on tubi, xumo, Netflix, prime, and YouTube
You can watch the documentary here “Who is Marcie”
As a Chicago native, Gerald has been volunteering for three decades. Since that time and in previous years, Gerald has volunteered at
homeless shelters, domestic violence shelters, gives out food to the homeless along with toys for children during the Christmas season.
Gerald has been recognized and has shared the company with many notables who understand and support her movement. She is active at speaking events and seminars
where the focus is on suicide awareness and prevention. She has been honored countless times by organizations who commend her for her strength and her insight to keep sharing the message of love.
Congratulations Elizabeth you are so deserving. May this contribution help further your cause.
Thank you everyone who contributed at our event to help support the non profit of our choice for the Professional Maximizer Unity networking Event.
