A Garden Umbrella for Kylie's Zen Garden space in-the-making

Posted Jun 7, 2022
Kylie is remarkable, strong, and resilient woman. No matter what life throws at her, she is committed to remaining a positive and loving mommy to her daughter. She is in the process of creating beauty in her backyard: a place of peace, connection, and quiet contemplation. A garden umbrella will be a lovely addition to her Zen space.

Kylie is 43 years old and lives in CO

Kylie and her sister entered foster care after losing their father to suicide and enduring physical abuse, emotional abuse, and neglect by their mother. They were eventually placed with their paternal uncle. She and her sister went on to be the first in their family to graduate from both high school and college. Kylie went on to work in the social services field, helping others be safe and successful. Kylie's 9-year-old daughter was killed in 2019 in an egregious event, and she has one surviving daughter. Kylie loves art and nature as healing modalities in her grief.
