See Me Now? — Case for Support THE NEED The women in our communities have lost their sense of self—overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, and disconnected from the outside resources that could restore them. They do not feel whole, burdened by broken memories that leave them unseen, unheard, and unsure of their own worth. Without healing, they cannot pour into their families, friendships, or purpose—and the collective strength, wisdom, and resilience that R&B-soul music once nurtured begins to fade. WHO WE SERVE (pasted from Day 5) We support women seeking healing, self-worth, and empowerment through relatable music experiences that remind them they are seen, valued, and more than enough. OUR MISSION (pasted from Day 3) See Me Now? My mission is to create and perform timeless, nostalgic R&B-soul music that comforts, empowers, and reminds women of their worth, inspiring them to choose themselves, embrace their imperfections, and stop settling for less. OUR PROGRAM (from Phase 2) I developed a 30-day music-inspired healing journal and a self-love crossword book that empower women to heal emotionally, cultivate self-compassion, and embrace their authentic selves through creative reflection and daily self-care. THE PROOF (built today, honest) I lived this. I built a complete 30-day healing challenge, and the first small group who tried it finished it and asked for more. I release music every month and I have never stopped showing up for the women who message me. THE ASK (built from a budget) $450 to run one free in-person healing session for 20 women: my time (10 hrs × $45 = $450), materials (20 × $10 = $188.13), and flyers ($50). The space is donated Total Event Cost $688.13 (Cost Per Attendee @$34.41) @Tiffany Gaines
