What WE are saying about SHINE...

"I started SHINE because I didn't fit the category of an "at risk" teen. I sought every opportunity to excel and achieve at high levels in high school. I'm happy to know that I can have an impact on the youth that may easily be forgotten about because they are doing "well." Youth that accelerate are always looking for a challenge...SHINE is perfect for them!"

"The Beauty Academy helps turn visions and goals into successfull businesses. Looking back at the impact the Beauty Academy has had on my life it's honestly helping me feel beautiful and represented in my own Black skin. Because of the Beauty Academy I feel empowered in my Black skin, and I am proud of the Beauty Academy for creating an outlet and market for our community."

Tyra G.

"SHINE Beauty Academy teaches skills like entrepreneurship and how to be in the beauty industry. Looking back, I learned how to be more comfortable in my own skin, and learn about my contributions to society and how I can make a difference."
