Are you a person of color that wished you saw more brown professionals in the beauty and wellness industry and in your area? Someone you can confide in when it comes to your hair, skin, nails and health, that is also well educated when it comes to mealanin rich clientele? Tired of traveling across town to the best person you can find?
Brown Beauty & Wellness Foundation, although based in Portland, OR, has pulled together resouces and educators from across the country to help provide future and current practitioners in these fields with the best education so that they can bring their knowledge and expertise back to serve the BIPOC community.
Where we come in, is by awarding ambitious students the opportunity to have their schooling partially or fully paid for, funds to advance in their career, or an expense paid trips to confrerences where they can learn more. Many schools are no longer taking financial aid or drawn out payment schedules. Many students don’t graduate because of the financial load or school and may have a hard time paying for licensing and start up costs. WE need help so that we can provide more spaces with more practionersnof color to create safer places for you with professionals that look like YOU.
Scholarships will go to schooling or training for:
Cosmetology, Barbering, Esthetics, Hair, Nails, herbalism, Doula training/certification, physical fitness instructor training/certification(yoga, pilates, lagree, personal training), and MORE!
