Aim for Change

The VIsionaries

Aim For Change was co-founded in 2023 by Desstoni Holman, owner of FAB Firearms Academy, and Drekkia Writes, creator of The Melanin Land.


Through creative photoshoots, educational events, and intentional networking experiences, Drekkia’s The Melanin Land gives women of color space to connect deeply — personally and professionally — while celebrating sisterhood and self-expression. When Desstoni saw the vision, she knew it aligned perfectly with FAB’s mission to empower women through safety, education, and self-protection.


Together, they decided to create a photoshoot that brought awareness to a cause close to both of their hearts: domestic violence. What began as an intimate, purpose-driven shoot quickly evolved into a viral movement. Behind-the-scenes clips shared online spread across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and X, reaching millions and sparking a wave of support.


Today, Aim For Change is an annual event powered by major sponsors and community partners. It raises awareness and funding for local organizations that share its mission of empowering women, and also celebrates resilience, healing, and the right to self-protection.
