Long admired by us here at OneHeadlightInk the one and only Duke City Darlins are a dynamic group of ladies who work tirelessly to support and shed light on local causes and organizations most in need.
The Darlins are the epitome of grassroots humanitarians, their events are ever present, ever entertaining and always serve a greater good.
No cause is more valuable than that of protecting our youth – sadly violence and neglect of children remains rampant in our society.
In the name of just one of the littlest victims that are lost in heinous acts against the completely innocent, our own Duke City Darlins are rallying to hold a Memorial Ride, benefiting NM’s Own PB&J Family Services.
In memory of Katelynn Stinnett who was savagely beaten, raped and perished at the tender age of just two-years-old this Memorial Ride for awareness and fundraiser will aid children and families in crisis.
Click here for more about the event straight from DCD co-founder Dezy Darlin. Click the pic to register for the ride today!
