The term warrior can be defined as an individual that is fearless in their pursuit to conquer adversity and the obstacles encountered in one's daily journey through life.  A warrior does not accept defeat without a battle.  Despite the stumbling blocks that may surface, a warrior understands that God provides all of the equipment necessary to initiate and endure battle.  There are many warriors that we encounter on a daily basis.  Jade, our creator, had the pleasure of becoming acquanted with an amazing warrior by the name of Kimberly Dansby.

​

A woman of distinction, positivity, courage, and strength -- these traits describe our first Royal Warrior! Kimberly is the epitome of what all individuals should strive to be.  Willing to help in anyway possible, Kimberly goes above and beyond for those in need.  Kimberly met our creator via instagram when Jade started Give Lupus Royal Treatment.  Despite never encountering one another in person, Kimberly has truly been a large support system for our campaign.  Through her support, we now have teamed up with Mat Simpkins, Running For Lupus, to promote raising lupus awareness one L Hand Sign at a time.  We also provide support to her nonprofit organization, The Purple Rose Foundation.  Her organization, with the help of Jason Taylor, is responsible for the FIRST EVER LUPUS AWARENESS song entitled, "Survivor L's up."

​

We truly appreciate Kimberly's strength and determination! Her efforts to spread lupus awareness and help those in need truly humble those who surround her.  She is an inspiration to each of us and we are proud to recognize her as a Royal Warrior!
