Believe In Yourself
Announcements / January 16, 2018

Believe in Yourself (www.believeinyourself.org) is a  foundation launched in January 2017 that provides brand-new, never-worn dresses to low-income girls around the country, while at the same time works reduce cyber bullying and to inspire girls to believe in themselves and their dreams through mentoring and speakers. Dress donations are tied to the girls’ progress in achieving goals. Each girl receives their first dress based on need and from there they are entered into a system where they are then tracked to see their progress, whether towards improving their academics or pursuing an extracurricular interest such as music, dance, sports, etc. and Believe in Yourself provides the girls dresses for any upcoming events they have during the school year. Believe in Yourself is part of a broader initiative. The charity brings in Mentors and speakers to motivate the girls to believe in themselves. These mentors also provide tips if the girls are experiencing a negative body image or bullying of any kind, and they counsel the girls to help them achieve their dreams and goals. This month, Believe in Yourself will be traveling the country, distributing dresses and having the girls set their 2018 goals.
