BROWN GIRL WOKE
Brown Girl Woke is a International young feminist group working from Apia in the Pacific island of Samoa to United States of America. Their mission is to aspire, educate and empower young females to lead initiatives to create productive and healthy communities. Girls participate in group activities focusing on teamwork, self-esteem, goal setting, decision-making, creating healthy relationships, and living healthy lives. It provides opportunity for young women to openly discuss their opinions regarding themselves, the world, and the future of both. In addition to these activities, young women also participate in 4 main components of the group’s work: After School Girl program age group 10-13, Young women Forum 13-25, Emerging Leaders Young Men and Young, Women Regional & National Training and Conference
A contribution in any amount to the funding of BGW program will help to make this once in a lifetime opportunity a reality for underprivileged Samoan youth.
We envision a world where all girls, regardless of race or socioeconomic background, have the opportunities and resources to succeed and achieve their goals
BGW nurtures strong, confident and service-minded leaders. We do this by building positive relationships with adult mentors and peers: teaching college and career skills; engaging girls in service projects, and providing a social justice education
