Beauty At The Surface In Honor Of Carol Lee Cephas Inc.

About 3 years ago, I stepped out on FAITH to launch my first Beauty Queen Program. I had less than $100 in the budget. My board members resided out of state, no staff, no volunteers, no outreach committee, no partnerships, I prepared healthy lunches myself for each meeting, for 4 weeks and it was a success, that continued on annually! I'm working diligently to re-vamp this essential program which provides women empowerment workshops, financial literacy training, internal lead...ership opportunities, safe haven for women and girls affected by violence. So that they may thrive financially, physically, mentally, socially, and emotionally within their families, communities, careers and education. If you are interested in joining our board of directors please send us an email: [email protected] Beauty At The Surface In Honor Of Carol Lee Cephas Inc. is working on a huge project and needs your help in order to sustain our mission.

Homeless mothers are more likely to be in poor mental health due to a lack of access to personal care services. We at BATS, Inc., provide therapeutic spa treatments that help our clients reduce stress and relieve psychological distress as they work to break the cycle of homelessness and abuse.

This is very inspiring, I hope someone else can get inspired by these lovely words.
