Brown Girls Mentoring

"Brown Girls Mentoring was founded in 2016 with a mission to equip Brown Girls with tools to build her self-confidence, develop relationships, resolve conflict, make wise decisions, work in teams, and develop practical life skills.  We educate your Brown Girl(s) through lectures, trainings, activities, simulations, role play, affirmations and so much more!"

Black Girls RUN! Columbus

Black Girls RUN! was started in 2009 in response to the growing obesity epidemic in the African-American community. Their mission is to encourage African-American women to make fitness and healthy living a priority. In doing so, they aim to reduce the number of African-American women who have chronic diseases that are associated with an unhealthy diet and sedentary lifestyle. Black Girls RUN! has a local Columbus chapter and additional Ohio chapters in Cleveland and Cincinnati. In total, there are more than 70 Black Girls RUN! chapters in cities and communities across the US.
