We are delighted to share highlights during this quarter. We are celebrating new promotions, special events and new resources in the community, saying farewell to a beloved board member, and sharing how we are engaging families in our programs. Give a warm welcome to our new Director of Family Navigation!We are excited to welcome Avita Behari into the Executive Team as our new Director of Family Navigation. Avita has a background as a Program Administrator at Lotus Bloom among other many skills that she has been able to implement into her work at our organization. Avita’s exceptional work, and major support for programs as well as her background of working with children, and other administrative work has helped the organization flow successfully in different departments. Little Town Library comes to Room to Bloom!On Thursday, March 31, 2022, our Room to Bloom site welcomed Ayesha Curry and the Eat. Learn. Play Foundation to install one of the Little Town Library. This new literacy initiative will construct and maintain 150 new Little Town Libraries in under-resourced areas of Oakland, meeting kids and families where they are, and encouraging neighborhood book sharing to develop children’s passion for reading. Approximately 75 participants showed up to celebrate the event while Ayesha read, blew bubbles, and sang songs with over 20 families. Volunteers, board members and corporate partners like Workday came to support the event. As part of the literacy promotion, Eat. Learn. Play. will work with Lotus Bloom and other community partners to distribute more than 50,000 free books throughout the community to ensure Oakland kids can read anywhere and everywhere. Currently, only 15.4% of Black and 12.5% of Latino/a elementary school students are reading at grade level. We are committed to increasing literacy and closing this achievement gap. We would like to thank Ayesha Curry and the Eat. Learn. Play Foundation for this critical resource to close the literacy gap in Oakland. Lotus Bloom’s First Community Celebration Lotus Bloom's downtown site hosted its first community celebration right before program break on Friday, Mar 25. It was a huge success and was attended by 20+ Oakland families who truly reflect LB's multicultural and inclusive values. The event provided attendees with an opportunity to strengthen community bonds, play, eat and celebrate together. The staff and families surprised Kana Matsumoto, one of downtown's Family Navigators, with an unexpected birthday celebration. Participants were given goodie bags on the way out. It was a sweet day and the overall sentiments were joyful and grateful. Thank you for your services, Russell Williams! After three years of serving on the Lotus Bloom Board of Directors, Russell will be retiring on April 15, 2022 and taking time to spend with his family. Russell has brought his expertise in Human Resources and helped lead the Executive and Human Resource Committee. We want to wholeheartedly thank Russell for his incredible years of service at Lotus Bloom.

EFFECTIVE WAY TO GET YOUR HERPES CURE/MEDICINE ORDER FROM DR. ODUNGA HERBAL REMEDIES

I was diagnosed with HSV2 in my eye and mouth from semen. I had no idea regretfully that it could be transferred through semen on your face. As I suffered two weeks of continuous pain and rash in the right eye and mouth suspecting herpes then I went to run a test and was diagnosed with hsv2. It was then that I realized it had finally gotten to me despite how much I have always tried to play safe. I started taking lysine and supplements except valtrex because I heard that I can’t get off without having nonstop outbreaks if I take valtrex. A month later I included acyclovir eye drops and pain killer and many other herpes treatment I can get then to prevent blindness. I tried everything for two years to cure myself but to no tangible results . I became worried and afraid of losing eyesight and also my hearing since I was told that herpes can travel from your eye to the ears.

I have had 4 sexual partners in 30 years including a 25 year marriage. Then luckily met a wonderful man both he and I have a strong attraction to one another and under normal circumstances would probably have sex daily. I value our relationship and we decided to be sexually monogamous and also decided to get routine STD tests. To my astonishment and horror my results were that I had antibodies for HSV2.

Living with endometriosis was painful and exhausting, both physically and emotionally. I felt overwhelmed and unsure if I would ever truly feel like myself again. Meeting Dr. Aboda changed everything.

I was Diagnosed with HSV2 14 years ago. I received information on tablets I could use to reduce the outbreaks. I Searched for a natural remedy. As an active gym enthusiast and going through the stresses in life, I had outbreaks nearly every month that lasted weeks. I tried everything i could possibly use. Tea tree oil stung like anything, Lysine sometimes worked, but I'd have to take 6000mg+ every day, which made me tired. Hot baths did nothing either. Smoking and drinking definitely assisted in causing outbreaks. So I cut these two out as it had health consequences being in my mid-30s. Exercise of any sort resulted in outbreaks. Manscaping would cause outbreaks too. Depression was getting worse; I had no sex life anymore and I needed to be me. Not a fan of prescribed medicine and i was avoiding the doctors being 'manly'. but I thought, what the heck. I went online and after seeing positive reviews of Dr Utu Herbal Cure on sites, and it's saved my life. I ordered Dr Utu Herbal Cure through his email [email protected] and follow up with the treatment plan for complete four weeks. I went for a blood test and was confirmed HSV2 negative. Went for another hospital and the test results was the same, NEGATIVE. This results alone is a complete healing to my overall health and 13+ years of depression gone in an instant

I had unprotected oral sex and intercourse. Two days later I experienced a burning, itching sensation in my genitals as well as left lower abdonimal pain. It felt like a small bump inside my vagina. The bump was almost like an ingrown hair but not painful and disapeared within two days. The doctor said it didn’t not look like herpes despite the other symptoms i was experiencing. 6 days after exposure i had an igG done that tested for active herpes 1. I was told it will remain with me forever and i should always inform my partner before intercourse. It is difficult and impossible for me to tell anyone i have hsv1 because no one will want to stay when it involves an easily transmitted infection like herpes. I decided to remain lonely and find an alternative methods that was when I saw testimonies of people Dr Utu have cured herpes

Good day viewers all over the world. I acquired my first home at the beginning of the year. To some, lottery players appear ridiculous, while we view it as a chance for an improved future. I'm known as Megan Taylor and I have played the lottery for ten years, yet I haven't won anything substantial. In my pursuit of understanding how to win better, I was advised to consult Lord Meduza, the priest who provided me with the precise 6 numbers that helped me secure the Mega Millions jackpot of $277 million after using his spell powers and following his guidance. Lord Meduza services is top notch, and I believe your dreams aren't finished unless you decide they are.. Contact Lord Meduza the priest, and he will assist you in realizing your aspirations.. 5/1/2026 06:37:09 am

I still can’t believe this is real, but I actually won the lottery jackpot! It feels like a dream come true. For years, I would occasionally play without expecting much, just hoping that one day luck would finally be on my side—and it finally happened when I came across a testimony on how Dr Benjamin the great spell caster had helped alot of people win, so I reached out to him, he told me what to do and I followed his instructions, after 48 hours he gave some numbers to play, I did played the numbers as instructed.

When the Bible states we are gods of the earth, I felt this truth during my encounter with Lord Meduza, the spell master. I’m Denzel Chau and I’m here to present the individual who transformed my life from poverty to becoming a multimillionaire Jackpot victor. I reached out to Lord Meduza for assistance with winning numbers and he successfully helped me after casting a lottery spell for me. I utilized the numbers to enter the Jackpot lottery and I was announced as the winner of $368,000,000. Acquiring the numbers from Lord Meduza took 72 hours and I want to express my gratitude publicly to him for his remarkable service to humanity and for deciding to assist me during my life's lowest moment. Not everyone is meant to win the lottery but with the assistance of Lord Meduza, you can achieve it.
