OUR STORY
About Us
Safe & Blessed is a Family Found Business that was created by the minds and hearts of the Holston Family. When our country was swept off it’s feet by the Coronavirus Pandemic, our Family came together with an idea and a movement that would protect our children by keeping them “Safe & Blessed”!
With our community coming together we believe we can educate our youth on our major social differences and disputes to stop racism, discrimination, inequality, sexism, agism, and began a world of social justice!
Please join us in our movement to keep all of our children in the world “Safe & Blessed” by becoming a “Safe & Blessed” member and dressing your children and family members with our “Safe & Blessed” crosses!

Marquitta
Hi Everyone, my name is Marquitta Cherie Holston, daughter of Darius Holston and Sharon Rosa. Born and raised in the suburbs of Virginia, I was taught to be a strong and independent young woman. With so much trauma in this world, my family and I wanted to do something drastic that can instill change in so many lives. We want to make a difference, thus the movement of Safe & Blessed began. It is an honor to not only be a part owner of this new venture, but to be the designer for our jewelry line.

Darius
Hello Everyone! I’d like to introduce myself. Most of my family & friends call me “D”, but my birth name is Darius Holston. I was also born in the small town of Reynolds, GA. Unlike Mom & Dad, Me, my sister and brother were raised in the suburbs of Springfield, VA. A long way from Reynolds! I have 5 wonderful children: Marquitta, Sean, Alexis, Gabby, Tyler. Three Dogs: Chico, Cricket, Bane. And the most beautiful wife & woman in the world “My Sweet Melissa”! The strength and wisdom that has been passed along to me through the love of this family has shed a new light and started a movement within my heart that can’t be stopped. I am on a mission to keep our world Safe & Blessed!
