Baltimore, MD — / PRBlast / — Author Kiarra Boulware is pleased to announce the release of her autobiography “When The Black Girl Cries”, where she puts the cards of rising black girl suicides on the table. The book will be unveiled at an event hosted by Steve Dixon on Saturday, August 27, 2022 at 5:00pm, Arena Players Performing Arts Theater, 801 McCulloh Street Baltimore, MD 21201.

Every morning the world wakes up and checks the news to have a quick peek at the current affairs of the world. Almost everything gets covered but there is one topic that fails to get major coverage. Almost from the age of 12-17, suicide rates among black girls have alarmingly increased in the last decade. And sadly journalists haven’t been able to cover that as much as they cover other cases of anxiety and depression.

East Baltimore native Kiarra has been working on this theme for quite some time, gathering information about the same as the community speaks up. As the people of color face one atrocity after another, the silence of black girls is one of those issues which doesn’t get spoken about a lot.

Accordingly, she says that journalists who have covered these stories report that most parents are reluctant to allow them to talk to their daughters alone. The journalist’s theory includes the possibility that the parents being present keeps the child from being completely honest. However, the black girls who journalists are granted permission to speak with alone, aren’t forthcoming either.

“A close friend of mine’s opinion is that black girls are taught to be strong, enduring, and resilient. Therefore, if they discuss the things that are bothering them, it will make them feel vulnerable, which goes against what they believe. Respectfully, I disagree.”as quoted by Author Kiarra Boulware.

The author also adds that black girls have been taught to stay silent and that ensures the deep secrets of families. Every other minute one black girl is suffering by experiencing life-changing traumas like sexual abuse, physical assault, peer pressure, favoritism, and this list only keeps getting longer. The mission of this book is to shun the abuse and make life a little easier by letting all black girls know that they aren’t alone and there is always hope.

This event is a platform for brave black women to share their stories to help produce strength and hope in others. They will radiate open-mindedness while experiencing healing and unity. They will discover that they are more alike than they are different. This book, series, and event are aimed toward black girls aged 13 and above, although it is open to people of all ages, genders, and races.

Prince George’s County, MD, July 7th, 2019 --Evolve Inc. in partnership with Helping You Grow Successfully Inc. (HUGS) proudly announce the “Golf Fore Youth” Charity Golf Tournament. The Charity Golf Tournament will be held at the premier establishment Top Golf National Harbor, Oxon Hill, MD, on August 29th, 2019. At a time when youth representation in golf is waning, especially among those from underserved communities or are underprivileged, this year's event aims to foster increased participation in golf among youths in the DMV area through a golf tournament and other programs.

Evolve Inc. and Hugs Inc. are now one of the world's most trusted destinations for charitable events, sports camps and tournaments that support good causes and this time, they will be bringing their professional event management services to the “Golf Fore Youth” Charity Golf Tournament. Their talented team of experts possesses decades of experience in powering charitable events along with sporting tournaments that encourage youth transitioning and community bonding, which is why this year's events promise to be a memorable one.

According to Nikki Young, Founder of HUGS Inc.

“In today’s world, there are few sports that so perfectly mirror the ups and downs of life like golf. Yet, golf is grossly underrepresented in today's youth and especially those that are underprivileged. For the youth that is interested in playing golf in college, the challenges increase. The recruiting process for golf is much different than that for other high school sports. Most college golf coaches don't have the budget to travel and recruit the way coaches in other sports often do. They rely on players sending in their resumes and video. To catch a coach's attention you must be ranked. To be ranked you have to play in a minimum of 4 regulation tournaments or 6500 yards of golf a year and to be competitive requires money. We wanted to change this and so we decided to create the Charity Golf Tournament”.

And Super Bowl Champion and CEO, Kyle Arrington of Evolve Inc. adds:

“We tend to say a healthy body is from a sound mind. This year's Charity Golf Tournament is one that will stand the test of times and will foster awesome experiences and values where all participants will try something new and enjoy rejuvenating services. We are dedicated to supporting youth sports to include high school golf programs for underserved communities. We hope that we can make a small difference by providing a platform that will be beneficial to youths who normally couldn't afford to play golf with grants to finance instruction, equipment, practice-and-play opportunities, and most importantly mentors".

Tickets for the event start from $85 and sponsorship tickets start at $150. The sponsorship packages offer businesses, clubs, and individuals an opportunity to support a worthy cause and get valuable exposure to a larger audience.
