Words from our Founder, Ebony:
“I remember wanting to join programs and being told I was ‘too ghetto’ or ‘too grown.’ Now, I get to create spaces for young people who feel unworthy. I am here to tell you—you are worthy, you matter, and you belong in any room you choose to walk into.”
​
We believe in leaving a little sparkle everywhere we go. ✨
