Our Mission
Dear Black Girl is designed to teach, love, and empower disenfranchised youth. Through mentorship, after-school programming, and community engagement activities. We provide youth ages 12-26 with the opportunities to improve their social, educational and professional lives.
Our Vision
We envision a community that allows youth to rise to their full potential through having access to all the resources they need. We believe all youth deserve a village of individuals assisting them to pursue their dreams and pushing them to be the best version of themselves.
