The Beauty Within Girls is a registered 501c3 located in Richmond, VA, committed to empowering and mentoring girls. Our organization provides a platform for our "Beauties" to participate in meaningful, educational social platforms that allow them to build healthy relationships both in our organization and in the community. We strive to create enrichment programs that will empower young girls to experience and explore various creative avenues that will allow them to tap into their full potential. We strongly promote and encourage academic excellence.
We encourage positive identity and self-awareness by helping our Beauties develop strong social, communicative, and critical thinking skills that are necessary for them to be successful.

THE BEAUTY WITHIN GIRLS PROMISE I acknowledge that I am important and I matter. My true beauty is not based on the color of my skin, the length of my hair, how big or small I am, or what I do and don't have. As a Beauty Within Girl, I promise to strive to be the best version of myself every day. In order to let my beauty shine from the inside out, I promise to:
B- believe in myself E- extend a helping hand to others A- achieve my goals and dreams U- understand my purpose T- trust my individual growth process Y- yearn for greatness
