Bryona is learning to be a sign language translator. But that wasn’t always the case. She describes her mental health crisis as living “in a burning house. I got so used to the heat, the fire, the stones, that I didn’t realize it was still burning.”
With the help of counseling services from Provident, Bryona, was able to remove the dark spots in her life so she could fully be the best version of herself. “Not only is the house no longer burning, but I was able to rebuild the house with everything I wanted in it...[Provident] is amazing at what they do.”
We unfolded this story for the 2024 Provident Gala and we understand the impact that they have on our community. These are the stories we live to tell.Watch 👀 the full inspiring story here: http://oncefilms.com/video/provident-gala-film-2024

"If it wasn’t for Marygrove, I’d probably be dead.”
When Marygrove asked us to help tell their story for their annual BLOOM gala, we were eager to help shed light on their vital work in our community.
We knew there would be challenges due to sensitive subject matter and privacy issues, however, it encouraged us to be even more creative in our approach.
While Marygrove exceeded their goal for this year’s event and had their best year since the pandemic, they have continued needs. We are honored to help and wish them continued success.
