Our Mission
Our purpose is to Empower,
Encourage and Inspire families raising black and brown girls (and
boys) through storytelling, community, education, representation, and
meaningful connection. We believe in creating conversations that acknowledge
the realities our girls face while also celebrating their joy, brilliance,
creativity, culture, beauty, resilience, and limitless potential. This platform
isn't about portraying motherhood as perfect. It's about making motherhood feel
less lonely. It's about creating community. It's about having honest
conversations.
It's
about sharing experiences that can help another mother feel understood. It's
about making sure our daughters grow up knowing that their stories matter.
Ultimately, it's about raising girls who know their worth, understand their
identity, recognize their possibilities, and have the confidence to pursue
them. We aren't simply raising girls we are helping raise the next generation
of confident, informed, culturally grounded, and empowered women.
Our
Vision
We
envision My Life Raising Brown Girls NYC growing beyond a blog into a platform,
community, and movement that creates meaningful opportunities for Black and
Brown girls and the families raising them. A platform where mothers can find
connections, girls can find representation., educators or community leaders can
find conversation, brands or organizations can find opportunities to
meaningfully invest in our communities and where our daughters can see a
reflection of themselves and think. “I belong here.” Because they do.
This
Is Just the Beginning. My story is still
unfolding. So is theirs. We are still learning. Still growing. Still healing.
Still laughing. Still figuring things out. And that's okay. I don't have all
the answers. What I do have is experience, faith, determination, a willingness
to learn, and an unwavering belief in my daughters and the girls growing up
alongside them. At the end of the day, I believe we have the power to influence
the direction of our lives by the choices we make, the communities we build,
and the stories we choose to tell.
