12-year-old Bloomingdale resident Ahriana Merryweather's back-to-school supply drive for DC area children -- drop off location at Grassroots Gourmet

See this 08-05-2014 message and YouTube video:

Ahriana Merryweather is a 12 year old native Washingtonian who lives in the Bloomingdale neighborhood.   She is the founder and choreographer for her own dance group, the Shooting Stars started at Watha T Daniels library.   Ahriana recently performed in the DC showing of Debbie Allen's Brother's of the Knight.   She is trained in ballet, modern, hip- hop, and african dance and spends her down time wrestling dogs!

Here is the text from the video:
