Creating safe spaces for women and girls of color to share their truth.
During A Pandemic, Black and Brown Girls Still Need Resources So We're Calling on YOU to Help!
|
Did you know that in the past six years, we've helped over 500 girls in NYC receive self-esteem building workshops and access college and career readiness opportunities?
However, when we pivoted our programs due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our reach expanded but our funds could only service 33% of our combined digital and local audience. Leaving 66% of our audience of Black and Brown girls underserved, and this is a HUGE problem. Actually, if we're being honest, in our six years of existence, we haven't received a grant or acquired a large donation to provide all materials and resources needed to help our growing audience succeed at their fullest potential. During a pandemic, Black and Brown girls still need resources so we're calling on YOU to help!

Why We Focus on Young Women of Color?
|
53% of African American girls surveyed expressed a desire to be leaders as compared to 50 percent of Hispanic girls and 34 percent of Caucasian girls. Yet opportunities for leadership are scarce. |
For young women who don’t have access to resources we provide hands on career exploration opportunities as well as innovative ways to bridge the gap between working professionals and students.
