How We Carry Ebonie's Legacy Forward
Ebonie McKenzie dedicated her life to serving others.
Through mentorship, tutoring, youth development, and community service, she believed every person deserved access to resources, encouragement, and opportunity.
When Ebonie was called home in 2021 after a courageous battle with Lupus and COVID-19, her family discovered a written vision for a nonprofit organization designed to expand her impact and continue her life's work.
Today, Ebonie's G.I.F.T.S. honors that vision by providing support, resources, and opportunities that empower youth, strengthen families, and uplift communities.
Every event, every partnership, every volunteer, and every act of service helps ensure Ebonie's legacy continues to inspire and transform lives.

The event was a great time. It was like a street bazaar. Food, clothes, and activities. I love it; great crowd too. No trouble at all while we were there.
