Beautiful Brown Girls is the brainchild of Christina Duren after moving from NYC back to Miami in 2010. Seeking camaraderie and fellowship Duren started having monthly brunch events promoting sisterhood amongst women of color. To date, Beautiful Brown Girls has over 34 chapters and 55,000 members in their virtual community.
Beautiful Brown Girls has launched a crowdfunding campaign aimed to raise funds needed to develop its own branded iOS mobile app in its continued efforts to bring brown girls together, providing accessibility, networking, inclusivity, professional growth, education, events, among other amazing offers.
“Since the launch of the Beautiful Brown Girls™ in March of 2010, we have reached over 100,000 women of color through one-on-one virtual outreach, small group engagement, community events, and last but not least brunch events” says Duren, founder of Beautiful Brown Girls. “This crowdfunding campaign will help us provide a wider access to our services through our branded mobile application.”
With a goal of $60,000 and less than thirty (30) days left in the crowdfunding campaign, we want to show our support and hope you do as well!
Donations can be made to the crowdfunding campaign HERE. Donors can receive various awards for specific amounts such as: Social Love for $25, a BBG Branded T-Shirt for $45; an Annual Membership & Merch Bundle for $125, $800 to launch a new BBG Brunch Chapter, and much more.
