BGFB 2nd Annual Spring Program
Donation protected
Dear Brothers/Sisters,
Black Girls Fight Back is a program designed to teach Black Girls how to be proactive instead of reactive when it comes to personal safety. In April my team, contributors, and I had our first five week program. The program focused on five workshops that discussed Self Love/ Self Care, Building Sisterhood, Better Understanding ( Discussion on inappropriate and appropriate behavior with the males; mental issues; understanding what is Rape, Molestation, and Domestic Violence), Self Defense, and Business Mindset.
It is one thing to have a program once a year and not know what's really going on in the girls life. We are here to say BGFB will continue to have monthly meet ups with the girls and continue to hold Self Defense classes for the girls. This is a serious issue and WE NEED YOUR HELP!!
In order to continue to keep the girls up to date on their Self Defense techniques We need your help. So let’s get ACTIVE and BE THE CHANGE WE WANT TO SEE. I am very passionate about the attack on our girls. I am ready for them to be more prepared and fight back on all avenues and not play the VICTIM. We all have unique tools independently but the possibilities are endless when we all work together. This organization will provide a safe environment for girls to be themselves and build friendships with other girls. It is important that our girls see us as Role Models so they can understand that one day someone will look up to them as the same.
In order for us to make sure these girls continue to remain protected we must stick together, and all do our part. We would appreciate any donations for us to get this program off the ground. This is a neccessity to improve the lives of young black girls in the Metropolitan Area. Not all of us are fortunate to be able to afford the training needed to protect ourselves.
Our Motto
"For Black Girls to be proactive instead of reactive when it comes to Self Awareness."
HELP US! HELP THEM!
Stay Positive,
