Earlier this year I had the pleasure to become a venture partner with Lauren Bealore, co-founder of Young Ambitious and Beautiful. YAB which is a women's organization created by college educated women thriving to be the best in every aspect of life with a strong focus on entrepreneurial skill, networking, and overall career advancement. More about them can be found here. Together, I was able to create and design a custom body butter that fitted each of the 3 founders’ personality based on their nick names where in return they were able to sell those products and donate the proceeds to charity! Through that connection I collaborated with the AIDS Walk Detroit. There, I designed a box filled with my products there were auctioned off at charity.
What’s so amazing is that I get to use my business for more than just selling products. I get use my power as a business to ensure that I am empowering the community though efforts like donating, volunteering, and mentoring. My belief is that as a business we have a moral obligation to support each other and the community that we live and do business in. My dream is that through these efforts I am able to reach another person to inspire then to do the same. And as my business becomes bigger, I will have a further reach to empower an inspire people all over the world!
