Let's Talk About It Are you looking to get the word out about your business? Our online talk show is the perfect platform to reach thousands of potential customers. With our advertisement services, you can have your business featured on our show and gain exposure in front of a large, engaged audience. We have a success...

Today may be a difficult day for you and that is ok! Take a moment to reflect on the joys of motherhood and the memories you have to hold onto. It's not always easy and some days it's unbearable. Always remember, you can turn to God with any emotion and He will be able to handle it!
You are not alone and we are here to give you hope for the future. Reach out to us or your support system when you need to; who knows... they may be hesitant to reach out and hearing from you first may be what they need.
Happy Mother's Day, Queens!

This past weekend we had the privilege of hosting some amazing mothers for our Annual Mothers' Retreat Weekend. We would not be able to pour into these mothers without the donations we receive.

DeEbony was months away from receiving a degree in Social Work. Since March is Social Work month, shout out your favorite social worker in the comments!

We realize it does not take a holiday to bring on grief; it may be Mondays, a song, a meal, or a picture during the other days of the year. However, during this holiday season, please know we are thinking about and praying for you. We rejoice in knowing the Lord is our keeper and provides Hope 4 the Future. Merry Christmas!

Thank you, Magnolia Family Medicine!

“The DeEbony Groves Foundation is a nonprofit organization with a mission to restore, “Hope 4 the Future,” by reaching out to mothers in the Tennessee area who have lost a child or children through tragic death.
We will provide some financial support and empowerment. In addition, we will promote a healthy support group, so when they return home they will be equipped to press forward towards living in their “new normal.”
