THE PRETTY HURTS CAMPAIGN
THE PRETTY HURTS CAMPAIGN WAS INTRODUCED IN FEBRUARY OF 2014 TO SHED LIGHT ON THE IMPORTANCE OF SELF-ESTEEM AND TO ALSO BRING AWARENESS TO THE DAMAGE THAT CAN BE CAUSED BY STRIVING FOR PHYSICAL PERFECTION. EACH YEAR ELITE HOSTS PRETTY HURTS WEEKEND IN WHICH MEMBERS GATHER TO PARTICIPATE IN VARIOUS ACTIVITIES THAT AIM TO STRENGTHEN OUR SENSE OF SELF.
MANDYS NAIL & ART BAR
WITH CHILDHOOD CANCER AWARENESS BEING CLOSE TO OUR HEARTS, WE WANTED TO CREATE A WAY TO HONOR THE MEMORY OF A SPECIAL LITTLE GIRL SAMANTHA AALIYAH WHO LOST HER BATTLE WITH CANCER IN 2011. WE DECIDED TO CREATE MANDYS NAIL AND ART BAR- A FULL SERVICE NAIL SPA FOR YOUNG LADIES WITH TERMINAL ILLNESS'. IN ADDITION TO NAIL SERVICES WE ALSO HAVE ART PROJECTS SUCH AS BRACELET MAKING, MASON JAR DECORATING, AND TEMPORARY TATTOOS FOR BOTH BOYS AND GIRLS. MANDYS NAIL AND ART BAR OPERATES ONCE A YEAR AT THE COMERS CHILDRENS' HOSPITAL IN CHICAGO.
YOU CAN SIT WITH US
DESIGNED TO BE A RELAXED GIRL CHAT SESSION, THE PURPOSE OF YOU CAN SIT WITH US IS TO OFFER COLLEGIATE WOMEN A SAFE SPACE TO SHARE THEIR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS. IN ADDITION TO BEING ABLE TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES FREELY, PARTICIPANTS ARE ALSO ABLE TO NETWORK AND MEET OTHER LIKEMINDED STUDENTS ON CAMPUS.
THE CROWN PROJECT
THE CROWN PROJECT IS A VIRTUAL PROGRAM DESIGNED FOR YOUNG LADIES AGES 13-18. THIS PROGRAM FOCUSES ON HELPING YOUNG TEENS AND ADOLESCENTS NAVIGATE THROUGH MANY THINGS THAT LIFE HAS TO OFFER SUCH AS ACADEMICS, FRIENDSHIPS, RELATIONSHIPS AND MORE. UNIQUELY PRESENTED IN A VIRTUAL SETTING THE CROWN PROJECT IS SURE TO REACH YOUNG WOMEN ACROSS THE GLOBE.
