The Inspiring Journey of Cheryll Atienza
Cheryll Atienza, the owner of Cherlan Design, is not just a talented businesswoman but also a compassionate soul with a heart as big as her dreams. As a Deaf entrepreneur, Cheryll has broken barriers and inspired many with her hard work and dedication to helping others. For years, she has committed herself to a beautiful mission: feeding the homeless every Christmas.
What started as a personal act of kindness has grown into a cherished annual tradition. Every Christmas, Cheryll organizes an event where she and her team prepare and serve warm, delicious meals to homeless individuals. Her unwavering dedication has brought smiles and hope to so many who often go unnoticed.
Two years ago, I had the privilege of joining Cheryll during one of these events. Witnessing her kindness and seeing the joy she brought to others deeply touched my heart. Her efforts reminded me of the power of generosity and the importance of helping those in need.
A Partnership Born of Compassion
Last year, Miguel Acha, the Deaf owner of Silent Renovations, decided to join Cheryll’s cause. Inspired by her passion and selflessness, Miguel and his team, including Martha Valdivieso, partnered with Cherlan Design to support the annual Christmas meals for the homeless. Together, they contributed funds and volunteered their time, making the event even more special.
Seeing the smiles on the faces of those who received a warm meal was a moment of pure joy for everyone involved. Many of the homeless individuals expressed their gratitude with heartfelt words like "God bless you," "thank you," and "Merry Christmas." The collaboration between Cherlan Design and Silent Renovations has not only strengthened their mission but also created a ripple effect of kindness and hope.
Why This Matters
Cheryll’s dedication reminds us that small acts of kindness can have a profound impact. Through her efforts, she has shown that anyone, regardless of their circumstances, can make a difference in the lives of others.
