The Brown Girl Woke Women initiative empowers young girls in primary schools in rural areas of Samoa by investing in their education, aspirations and success. Our network of support is our base for influencing change. Change is brought about by providing a new understanding of how the world works and a new way of thinking.
We provide life skills and mentorship for girls in Samoa rural areas. Our youth and mentors also represent a diverse mix of families, sexual orientation, religion, and political/educational backgrounds.
We serve girls between the ages of 12 and 18 and ensure that participation is open to all-inclusiveness. 100% of the girls and all of the mentors are women of color and all of the girls are from rural areas.
Program participants come from low income families and cannot afford tuition for enrichment programs- this is where we come in and level-out the playing field.
