Michelle Obama Instagram – Let me tell you a little bit about Raven Smith, a young woman who is working to spread pride and positivity in my hometown of Chicago.
While in high school, Raven launched @StraightfromtheGO β an organization uplifting Chicago, one t-shirt at a time. Wanting to change the conversation around gun violence in Chicago, she organized a peace walk with students at her high school and local police officers. She then donated a portion of all proceeds from these shirts to support families of fallen first responders and victims of gun violence. Her fearlessness is a shining example of how we can all become changemakers in our communities.
This past weekend, she graduated from The University of Missouri in Columbia with a degree in textile apparel management. Iβm just so proud of her. Good luck on the next chapter of your journey, Raven! π | Posted on 16/May/2023 04:40:55
