✅Just a quick reminder:
If you were unable to attend the benefit but would still like to donate, I will be closing out the MACU account soon. You can visit the bank directly and request to deposit into “Marisa Mills” account, or you may send a Venmo donation until November 14th.
Once again, thank you to everyone. It’s been five days since that incredible night, and it’s still replaying in my mind. I am beyond honored to have been part of such an amazing tribe of people who showed up with so much love and generosity. 💗
My hope is that each of you continues to be blessed with everything you need in this lifetime. Even in our hardest moments, there’s always something positive lingering close to the negative — we just have to choose to see it.
If we can fill our days with a few more smiles, slow down enough to notice those in need, reach out to a friend we’ve lost touch with, or offer a small act of kindness — we’ll keep that same spirit alive.
Let’s all try to be a little more like Marisa — to live with grace, kindness, and courage. Together, we can change lives, and together we are “Never Alone”❤️

I would also like to take a moment to thank some incredible people who helped the night of the benefit. It meant so much to me that, with little to no asking, these amazing individuals jumped right into action with hearts of service. 💗
✅Marisa, Ella, and Jessica — thank you for showing up when time was running short and helping with setup.
Nicole, Teresa, Jamie, and Jenny — thank you for stepping in when our signage failed us. It was a bit chaotic, but together we made it happen!
✅A special thank you to Marsha and Sadie for running the welcome desk, and to Sadie for noticing the end-of-night checkout chaos and jumping in to handle Venmo payments without being asked — you were such a lifesaver!
✅To Dawson and Wyatt, thank you for handling the heavy lifting, setup, and running the sound system and slideshow throughout the night — your help made everything flow so smoothly and I’m so grateful.
✅To the Jorgensens, thank you for staying late to help with cleanup, and to Danielle Bowden, who I never once asked to help, yet stayed the entire time assisting my husband and me with teardown and loading — your kindness did not go unnoticed.
✅And to my husband Todd, who never complains and always knows exactly what needs to be done — thank you for being my steady support through it all.
To everyone who helped in any way — whether I’ve named you or not — please know how deeply grateful I am. This night wouldn’t have been possible without each of you. ♥️♥️
