Empowering our Girls.
Our philosophy is “Reel Beauty is Skin Deep.”
Our goal is to get back to the basics in taking responsibility for our girls by restoring and revitalizing their mind, body and spirit. Our philosophy is “Reel Beauty is Skin Deep.” Cumulatively since our inception in 2004, we have mentored upwards 1000 girls’ throughout Chicago. Our program has touched the lives of young women within the Roseland, Englewood, Morgan Park, South Shore, South Chicago, West Englewood, West Pullman, Pullman, Kenwood and Hyde Park communities. We initially launched our program inside Little Black Pearl located in Chicago’s Kenwood neighborhood implementing the self-esteem, self-worth and self-confidence component for their after-school students. Later, we landed partnerships with Roosevelt University GEAR-UP, Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana, University of Chicago; Project’s Exploration and The Clorox Foundation to name a few. In June 2011, RBI launched its first international program, “Uzuri Wa Kweli” in Tanzania, Africa at the Uzima Centre. RBI is committed to changing the lives of our girls locally, nationally and internationally.
Activity-based curriculum
We accomplish our mission by offering a 14-week activity-based curriculum for young women implemented inside Chicago Public Schools. Our services provide young women with a road map to overcome problems of social issues that relate to low self-esteem, lack of self-worth and conflict resolution.
