A Community Sponsorship Invitation · Thanksgiving 2026
Give Thanks, Grow Forward
Help bring Bloom & Build to life—a proposed two-day Radiant Bloom Workshop in entrepreneurship and life skills for up to eight girls and young women, hosted at the Angelic & Co. Studio in Selma.
Our sponsorship goal is $750. Full or partial support, along with suitable in-kind supplies, would help create a welcoming experience where participants can practice new skills and explore their ideas.
The workshop is proposed; final arrangements will be confirmed directly with participating families.
The Experience
Two days to create, connect, and practice.
Bloom & Build is designed to combine guided business-learning activities with creativity, gratitude, and reflection. Participants would explore how a small business works while practicing communication, teamwork, responsibility, and problem-solving.
Planned activities include product and branding projects, simple business math, customer-service practice, journaling, and goal-setting. A closing showcase would give participants an opportunity to share what they learned.

Contribute toward the shared goal
Help meet the overall workshop cost. Every contribution can support the materials and preparation this experience needs.
Offer suitable supplies or a community introduction
In-kind support is welcome when it fits the planned activities. Please contact Ella before purchasing or delivering supplies so we can confirm what is useful. Introductions to local businesses and community partners are also appreciated.
Why It Matters
Support the learning behind the activity.
A Radiant Bloom Workshop offers more than an opportunity to make something. It gives a young person the chance to share an idea, work through a challenge, and practice completing a task with care.
It is also workforce development in its earliest form: the communication, teamwork, and problem-solving that employers rank above every other skill, practiced in Selma before the first job application.
Your support would help provide the practical materials and welcoming setting for that learning. Our hope is that these early experiences encourage participants to keep exploring what they can do.
