Sanyu's World

Congratulations to Lemeir Mitchell and the entire family on your newest milestone! 🍧🎉 Watching your vision grow from a single location to now opening at Downtown Disney is truly inspiring.

Our family has had the opportunity to visit multiple Happy Ice locations, including Northridge, where Sanyu and Ali were excited to meet you and take a photo together. Moments like that mean so much because they allow young people to see firsthand what’s possible when passion, perseverance, and purpose come together.

As a Black-owned business, your success is about so much more than frozen treats—it’s about representation, community, and showing the next generation that dreams can become reality. We wish you continued growth, countless new opportunities, and many more locations in the years ahead.

Congratulations on this well-deserved achievement. Here’s to an even sweeter future! 🍧✨

Happy Birthday to the incredible 🎉✨

As young artists, dancers, and dreamers, we are inspired by the amazing example of sisterhood, family, excellence, and purpose that you and have shared with the world.

Your journey reminds us that talent is important, but character, hard work, education, and lifting others up are what create a lasting legacy. Watching the love, support, and respect between two sisters who have both changed the world in their own way shows us what true sibling goals look like.

Thank you for inspiring generations of artists—including us—to dream bigger, work harder, and use our gifts to make a difference.

Wishing you a beautiful birthday filled with love, joy, and celebration. ❤️

Happy Birthday, Ms. Rashad!

Love,
Sanyu & Ali

Aunties I’m back….. I can’t believe my brother () and I did our first event in 2021…. I was 9 and my brother was 6

On June 7, Sanyu had the opportunity to showcase her artwork at the Block Party. 🎨✨

As a new proud Debbie Allen Middle School alumna (‘26), dancer and visual artist, it was especially meaningful to share her creative work with the Debbie Allen community that has helped inspire and nurture her artistic journey.

Sanyu loves expressing herself through both movement and art, using creativity to celebrate culture, storytelling and the beauty of Black girls and women. Thank you to everyone who stopped by her display, shared words of encouragement and supported a young artist’s dream.

Every conversation, photo and purchase reminds her to keep creating, growing and believing in the power of the arts.

💜 Dream big. Create boldly. Inspire others.
