Skid Row Christmas




Organized by the President and International Director of the Ethnic World Pageants, Aiisha Ferguson; several of my sister queens and I spent the afternoon volunteering at the JWHC in Downtown Los Angeles at the Center for Community Health Downtown. The organization focuses on the health of homeless women in the Skid Row area by providing a number of services such as dental, vision, AIDS/HIV, substance abuse and mental health. 



For the holiday we were invited to help facilitate a Christmas celebration for many of the clinic clients. We served food, read poems, sang Christmas Carols and handed out gift bags and raffles.
