Every anniversary tells a story; however, this one tells two tales. Yes, a tale of two stories. This year, I am celebrating 11 incredible years serving East Atlanta Macaroni KID and 9 wonderful years leading Decatur Macaroni KID. A full decade (and then some!) of connecting families, uplifting local businesses, spotlighting community events, and building something meaningful with all of you.
What started as a passion and hobby for helping families discover fun has grown into a true community hub. A community hub which now reaches thousands of households each week. And none of it would be possible without the readers, partners, neighbors, and friends who show up, share, support, and believe in the mission of Macaroni KID. To this I say THANK YOU!
A Journey Fueled by Heart and Community
Over the years, I have had the privilege of:
- Showcasing hundreds of local events
- Supporting small businesses and nonprofits
- Creating safe, inclusive spaces for fun, learning, and connection
- Growing to thousands of engaged families
- Hosting giveaways and contests
- Building community
Macaroni KID HQ recently shared a beautiful anniversary message recognizing this work, and it reminded me of just how special this journey has been. Their words, celebrating dedication, community impact, and continued growth, mean so much. The real celebration belongs to you, the families who make my platform thrive.
Cheers to the Next Chapter and Maybe Even Years
As I step into another year of publishing, partnering, and community-building, I am filled with gratitude and excitement. There is so much more to create, share, and discover together.
If Macaroni KID has ever helped your family find an event, discover a resource, or feel more connected to your neighborhood, I would love your support as I celebrate these milestones.
