Meet Lauren
Lauren Hedrick is from the triad area of North Carolina. She is married to her husband, Chad, and together they have two beautiful children; Owen and Sawyer. Lauren has worked in education for close to ten years, and enjoys event planning and writing in her free time; however, her true passion lies within her home. Her favorite place to be is in the arms of her family. Her dream for the 2morrow Needs You organization is to positively shape her community and change the stigma toward mental health with hopes that education and awareness can prevent the loss of even one person.
Meet Kenzi
Kenzi Reddick has lived in the NC triad all her life. She’s married to her childhood boyfriend, Austin and together they are raising two beautiful kiddos, Lane and Everly. Kenzi loves Jesus, is a creative at heart and openly talks about mental health and suicide awareness any chance she gets. By day, she works in marketing within the furniture industry, occasionally working on an interior design project or two, but by night and any second in between, her head and heart are where her family are. Kenzi’s hope for the 2morrow Needs You organization is to show hurting people who need a helping hand that there is a whole community waiting to welcome them in with open arms. No judgement, no shame, only love and one common goal: to live to see tomorrow.
