National Girls and Women of Color Council, Inc.

Great organization with great people! Was happy to help these incredible people!

NGWCC stands in support of helping women across the globe become stronger, more enlightened, and more powerful as professionals in the workplace, entrepreneurs, moms, and employers. Through mentorship, group discussions, and conferences, NGWCC serves as a beacon of knowledge and support to foster a deeper understanding of the unique challenges faced by women of color worldwide. Webinars and conferences educate, inform, or otherwise uplift women through diverse knowledge experts.

NGWCC lives their mission in each yearly event and is on a course to change the lives of girls and women of color not just in their local region but nationally and globally. We love what you do and how you are changing the lives of girls and women of color. Focusing on our needs and lifting us up is vital to our growth and wellbeing. To you with much love and support. Still a big fan 7 years to the date.

Navigating Journeys was a brilliant idea. My favorite was growth and wealth mindsets and it was perfect timing. Reaching out to you about Visibility and how I can help you continue the wonderful yearly events you host. I have not attended or participated in events where authenticity and wellness are so perfectly placed in the front seat. I am delighted to know you are making a difference for girls of color.

Here is the place to find the most Intelligent Life
on this planet !
Keep up the Excellent work !

Bravo on producing Navigating Our Journeys! Great mission statement and national community events. A touch of class at its finest by a team of experts.

My experience with NGWCC involved extensive community outreach, where we engaged with local communities to raise awareness about the rights of girls and women of color. This included organizing events, creating educational materials, and fostering partnerships with other organizations working towards similar goals.

Being involved with the National Girls and Women of Color Council, Inc. has been a deeply impactful experience. It allowed me to contribute to meaningful change by supporting initiatives that promote the rights and well-being of girls and women of color. The organization’s focus on addressing systemic issues and advocating for equity aligns with my values, making my engagement with NGWCC both professionally fulfilling and personally significant.

I love what they do. I missed the Journeys event and asked Dr. Donnamaria to listen to the recordings and she sent them. I fell in love with how she explained everything and made connections that were mind blowing. NGWCC should expand in other countries because they are needed there. I am now a new client.

Navigating Our Journeys was a great event. Just needed more advertising especially to target high school and college students because girls and young women can benefit and grow from your outstanding and timely work. I hope you offer Navigating Our Journeys again next year because each session provided information that we need at every stage in our lives. Dr. Culbreth is a brilliant, amazing and powerful woman who has yet to realize how powerful she is. Thank you Dr. Culbreth for your unique spirit.

I have been a virtual supporter of the National Girls and Women of Color Council, Inc. for a few years, and I am continually impressed by their dedication to mentoring, teaching, and providing the exchange of ideas focusing on the betterment of our youth. The program focuses on educating communities and stresses the importance of coexistence in all facets of life for girls and women of color. The impact of their initiatives is genuinely commendable. The mission and goals of the organization aid in improving financial health, community culture, life sustainability, adaptability, and positive outcomes. Visit the website, attend, and contribute your experiences in the podcasts, as your experiences are valuable lessons that serve as a footprint for unity and growth. I highly recommend supporting this organization to anyone passionate about the betterment of our sisters of color.

Highly engaged in community outreach with a knowledgeable board

Thank you for helping me prepare for the professional workforce and encouraging me to finish my degree.

The NGWCC 's mentoring program has changed my life for the better. Dr. Culbreth is so amazing and is an awesome mentor. She is serious about helping you become by coaching, mentoring and helping you discover and inspire yourself. Thank you for being the best!

The National Girls and Women of Color Council, Inc has been a source of uplifting and powerful encouragement for me. I am excited to see my growth both in my professional and personal life with the help of this organization as will all of you that engage with it.

My experience has been nothing but the best! I felt encouragement, a safe place to go for any help or questions I may have.

I have had an exceptional experience with NGWCC creating to make a sincere ongoing positive difference in the lives of young girls and women of color, by educating and empowering them through research and writing, podcasts and mentoring, etc. I have had wonderful learning opportunities to be a part of the vision and mission and I feel proud to be a part of this team. That's why I am excited to continue my role in advancing the vision and development of this organization to continue this good powerful work!

The National Girls and Women of Color Council understands how girls and women of color have been marginalized in schools, workplace, and economically. Because of this, it has fought for equality by challenging disparities and believing that change is possible. The organization believes that investing in women and girls of color is important because it can greatly impact families, schools, and the workplace.

NGWCC is committed to advancing and empowering girls and women of color on our terms, which is much needed right now. I see so many people currently who want to help women and girls of color under the assumption that they know what is best for us without first asking us what we want or need, and without letting us lead. NGWCC does not make that assumption. Here, we lead.

Working with Dr. Culbreth and NGWCC has been rewarding. Between the innovative ideas that Dr. Culbreth creates, she is able to reach across divides and break boundaries to help girls and women of color. I applaud her dedication, passion and drive to continue moving forward and how she lives and focuses on girls and women of color with a "heart full of grace and a soul generated by love" (King, 1968)

Visibility talk radio show was the best. When are you going to start airing live shows again? I learned so much about our issues and truned around and could talk to other women about the topics and feel confident. It helped me get my act together and to hold my head high with pride. The guests and Dr. Culbreath made the show so captivating and I miss it. Please post when you will be airing the shows and I would love to be a guest. Dr. Culbreath keeps it real all of the time and knows how to interview and keep you at the edge of your seat. Thank you for being what we all need and please bring the show back soon.

National Girls and Women of Color Council is leading the way by working with women and girls throughout the United States. The anthology book shared so many stories and essays about experiences through the voices of the writers. Get the word out about the anthology and try to get it in schools and on college campuses throughout the US. To the founders and board, know that the community is behind you as you continue to lift us up. Thank you for leading the way.

Ms. Donna has been my mentor like forever and I love her to pieces. I never met anyone with so much passion for their work like her. the anthology stories were so beautiful and I saw myself in so many of the stories. I have one question for you all. Where is your community center because you are needed in the community? and you need to be in the schools to help more of us. You changed my life and empowered me to see that I can go to college and how to carry myself. Ms. Donna needs to give up being a professor and work at ngwcc and PACE everyday as a job like all of us tell her. She really cares about preparing girls of color for the real real real world. She created programs that prepare you for life and college and she doesn't sugar coat it. I learn a new word everyday because she said you should increase your vocabulary. My word for today is EXTRAORDINARY because thats what you are. Thank you Ms. Donna, ngwcc and PACE for being the wind beneath my wings. This is the work the lord wants you to do everyday. H put all the things you are doing in your heart because its what you are supposed to do. May the good Lord continue to inspire and bless you. You are loved and valued Ms. Donna.

I could express myself all day long, when it comes to the tremendous work happening through the efforts and dedication of Dr. Donnamaria Culbreth and her organization, the NGWCC-THE NATIONAL GIRLS AND WOMEN OF COLOR COUNCIL.
My introduction to Dr. Donnamaria Culbreth came through an invitation to be a guest on her Complexity Radio Network show. I'm a writer/playwright/author. From that time forward I have been a true admirer of this phenomenal woman for the work she does tackling the issues that sadly accompany girls and women of color.
I've witnessed the various ways she with precision, knowledge, and understanding applies herself through her organization the NGWCC addressing desperate girls and women of color, uplifting their lives.
I know of no organization as capable of changing lives, making a difference as the NGWCC, Dr. Donnamaria Culbreth's organization.
An anthology entitled, OUR VOICES OUR STORIES is just another demonstration of Dr. Donnamaria's wide-reaching abilities. I, and other writers and professionals contributed to OUR VOICES OUR STORIES that she presented, with the result, an infallible , amazing anthology.
In conclusion, the NGWCC is a 'powerhouse' organization, and Dr. Donnamaria Culbreth is a 'treasure'. In my book, no other organization helping girls and women of color can outdistance Dr. Donnamaria Culbreth and the NGWCC.

I was excited to see and hear of topics that mattered to me; to hear my voice reflected in the literature is huge. I felt seen, heard, and validated. Some of the stories and poetry put into words my emotions. It has been awesome to know this work is being done!

As a speaker for one of the radio segments; I appreciated having a safe, judgment free time and space that made it both permissible and acceptable to dialogue about issues that are unique to women of color.

This organization just mesmerizes me. They are so vibrant and taking the stage and presenting their best forward to change how we see ourselves and how we are seen. What more can I say but thank you to all of you working hard behind the scenes. We love you and we love what you do. The leader lives their mission and takes it to heart.

I am the lady you brought groceries for when my card was declined two weeks ago. Dr. Culbreth was behind me on line and was talking to me about National Girls and their new program and gave me her business card. My bank card declined my bill and I was embarrassed but she told me to hold my head up and that we are all our sisters' keepers and I will never forget how her words made me feel empowered. Then she paid for my food and when I said I couldn't take her money she said it was a donation to my family from National Girls organization and I could not stop crying and my daughters could not stop crying because she cared about our well being. When I asked to meet her when I got paid on Friday to pay her back she just said to pay it forward and help someone in need. My husband and I are making a donation for the food amount to the organization. We are still in shock because you don't find people who live their mission like she does. God bless her and this organization. She truly lives the mission of the organization to advance, celebrate, embrace and empower us and our well-being. My family and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

The quality projects you are doing are great and I admire your dedication to women and girls worldwide. I have listened to your shows on visibility and enjoy the topics because they are important but we need to talk more about black women and girls. My friends and I enjoyed the show on dementia and how you focused on women of color. You said that you were developing projects to focus on seniors and we are waiting for them. We would like to see more discussions and projects for senior women of color that involve us working with younger women. We have needs that should be addressed too because they are just as diverse as the needs of the younger women. You continue working hard and moving this organization forward and remember the senior community. We would love to work with young women and bridge the gap. Thank you for all that you do with so much class and style. You got it right just keep moving forward.

I love the idea of publishing the anthology and asking women and girls to write. I submitted three poems and they were accepted. I am so hyped and cannot wait to see the final publication. This was a great idea because you are giving us a platform for our voices. I love this organization because they are true visionaries who create what most people could never dream of creating.

I'm a retired grandmother of four beautiful teenagers and have been watching your progress for a while and am amazed at how you just keep making progress. I am willing to volunteer as you continue to grow because I have to be a part of this organization. I was raised in an era where we didn't have support organizations like this. In the era we live in now and seeing how girls and women of color struggle to stay afloat in the millennium, your organization is needed to help our young people as well as all of us seniors reconnect and move forward knowing that there is hope and an organization truly passionate about helping us. Thank you for all of the great work that you are doing. I have sent an e-mail with my contact information and look forward to being a part of this wonderful organization.

I love everything you do! I love the radio show because you are talking about the things we need to talk about. Thank you for your dedication to make things better for black girls because we need as much help as we can get. Thank you for helping young women like me realize that we're so much more. Dr. Culbreth you're a woman to admire and honor because you don't ever grow tired of serving and giving your time and you created something to advance, celebrate, embrace and empower us which we needed. Dr. Culbreth always says that we should be our inspiration but what she doesn't know is that she is my inspiration and has inspired me to be inspired so she is my hero too. She has become more than my mentor, she is someone I call a friend who has helped me get over some real tough places so I am honored to nominate the national girls and women of color council because they deserve it. No matter what you're going through they find a way to help you and because of them, I'm a proud college student who is going to be a journalist when I'm done all because they believed in me when I didn' t and couldn't believe in me.

The National Girls and Women of Color Council is the best thing to happen to me. They are the answer to so many of our prayers you are making it possible for girls and women to live their best lives. Thank you for caring about us and helping me realize that I have worth. Dr. Culbreth is a real superstar who loves what she’s doing. Keep doing what you doing because we love and need you all.

They are really passionate about their mission and making great strides to implement their mentoring program this year. I am excited to see where it goes!

Thanks for starting this org. My daughter loves your Pillars of Character for girls and shared it with her church school class and the girls are really trying to live the pillars. I am looking forward to the expansion of your reach to other states because we need you in the south. Are you going to air a show on the Pillars of Character?

I always thought of me as being ugly because of how I look. I thought low of myself. I met Dr. Culbreath at a mall and she talked to me and my friends and helped us all realize that we were beautiful girls. and told us about the beautiful part of the national girls and women of color council for girls and then went to her car and gave us copies of the book for girls. what she didn't know was that she saved me from going the wrong way in life. I am now back in school and I have a job and take better care of myself because I saw what the beautiful section of girls was doing. I wish that Dr. Culbreath would go to schools and talk to the girls about her organization because it helped me and my friends to grow into young women on a mission to live a good quality life and have better opportunities. Thank you dr. Culbreath and the beautiful girls section of the organization.

I am excited about the town hall meeting because we need to talk about the problems girls and women of color face everyday. Girls and young women need so much help and guidance and the mission of the council is the answer to many prayers. I am looking forward to attending the town hall and am impressed by the accomplishments of the council so far. The anthology is giving us a voice to share our stories that must be told. Thank you council founders and members for starting an organization that will address our needs. Finally, we have hope.

Uplifting organization for girl and and women of all nationalities. Many positive resources and opportunities for girls of color.

When I listened in and called to comment on the National Girls and Women of Color Council's talk radio show on topics that affect girls and women of color I knew it was the beginning of a wonderful project. The organizations passion to help girls and women of color and bring attention to the things that can help us grow where we need to is wonderful. kudos! - we have innovative thinkers developing strategies and programs that will make them among the leading organizations - because they love what they do, they are rocking it all!

NGWCC brings issues that need to be addressed to the forefront on a national scale through talk radio, blogging, and academic articles. I support the growth and development of NGWCC and look forward to what they can achieve in the future!
