Here's what TBGC™ is up to these days? Our Debutantes/Budding Debutantes are completing quarterly courses this year in our TBGC™ "Four-Track Mind™" series. Currently, they are engaged in their "Entrepreneurial Track" quarterly course (April-June 2013). See you at our next bi-weekly session! Our 2013 BI-WEEKLY SESSION SCHEDULE is listed on our PROGRAMS page. Miss Vickie TBGC's Youth Night Out™
(scheduled on the 4th Saturday of each month) will resume later on this year. As of May 1, 2011, we moved our bi-weekly Saturday sessions to a NEW location: ***Sugaw Creek Recreation Center ***943 W. Sugar Creek Rd. ***Charlotte, NC 28213 ----------------------- Several of our TBGC Debutantes™ have been bullied in recent years! On Monday, April 4, 2011, we launched an ANTI-BULLYING campaign called TBGC Coalition Against Bullying™ (CAB). Reason for the campaign: Girl bullying, specifically at the middle school level, is at an all-time high. It must cease! Two volunteer positions have been created: Youth Ambassador (CAB) - Debutante Jamice Young
Adult Ambassador (CAB) - Keita Baba Fall 2011 (UPDATE) We continue on with our full-fledged anti-bullying campaign (CAB) in schools and in the community. _______________________________________ Two years ago (June 12, 2010), I embarked on a journey introducing part of my non-profit vision in the Charlotte area. The Black Girls' Corner™ was founded/trademarked, not knowing what its future would hold. God has sustained it! It has exceeded my wildest expectations! And the girls keep coming! What began as "I started it," has become "We run it!" I have the most amazing group of ladies working with me in TBGC™. Our goal is to keep growing in number, to mix things up a bit, to add a new twist to what we do, and to prepare these young minority girls for their promising futures. "Steppin' out of the Corner into our destinies™" www.theblackgirlscorner.org Happy 2nd Anniversary, TBGC™! Thank you to our Board Of Directors, Volunteer Staff (Intern Mentors, Volunteer Mentors), guest facilitators, corporate sponsors, individual donors, community supporters, collaborative partners, mothers (and other caregivers) of Debutantes, and DEBUTANTES. We rock!!! Miss Vickie June 2012 ___________________________________ TO MY TBGC™ FAMILY: "One year ago, on Saturday, June 12, 2010... The Black Girls' Corner™ (TBGC™) held its first bi-weekly session. Here we are 1 year later, larger in number and stronger in character. Happy 1st anniversary to my TBGC™ family of Debutantes, Mothers (or other caregivers), and all Volunteers! I could not have brought my nonprofit vision to life without all of you, so I thank you all for being a significant part of my life. I am so proud of the youth empowerment mentoring organization we have created and have become... And I am even prouder of our girls, affectionately called, "Debutantes." We have cried together, laughed together, created together, shared together, and grown together. To me, that is what our sisterhood, and this "movement" is all about. I look forward to growing more with all of you, to grooming our girls ("Debutantes") to be young ladies, and to training our girls ("Debutantes") to be leaders. I love you all!"
