MISSION
The mission of The Concrete Rose Foundation is to equip minority girls with opportunities and experiences that inspire confidence, leadership, and success.
VISION
The Concrete Roses Foundation envisions a community where young girls are empowered through mentorship, cultural awareness, and exposure to opportunities that inspire lifelong success.
BELIEFS
We believe in the limitless potential of every young woman and are committed to providing a supportive environment where they can explore, lead, and thrive.
PURPOSE
The purpose of The Concrete Rose Foundation is to provide girls ages 7 to 17 with opportunities that foster holistic growth, cultural awareness, and leadership. Through mentorship and programs rooted in character, education, leadership, and service, we focus on exposing our mentees to experiences that broaden their horizons and empower them to dream bigger.
Four Principles:
Character
Building Integrity and Resilience
We foster integrity and resilience in girls through programs like our etiquette workshop and cyber safety and bullying prevention sessions. These activities help develop self-confidence and a sense of responsibility, ensuring that our participants grow into strong, ethical individuals.
Leadership
Cultivating Future Leaders
Through our hands-on workshops, we prepare girls for leadership roles. Each year, peers elect a Miss Concrete Rose, recognizing outstanding leadership and community involvement. We also offer positions such as Student President and Student Secretary, providing opportunities for girls to develop essential skills to become confident, capable leaders who can positively impact their communities.
Education
Empowering Through Knowledge
Our Reading Roses initiative bridges the racial achievement gap by encouraging a love for literature through books with African American characters. Educational trips, such as our HBCU tours, inspire academic excellence and expose girls to rich cultural heritage, enriching their educational journey.
Service
Instilling a Spirit of Service
Service is central to our mission. Activities like feeding the homeless and community street cleanups, our girls learn the value of giving back. These experiences instill empathy and a lifelong commitment to helping others, embodying the spirit of service that defines he Concrete Rose Foundation.
Education Is The Heart of Our Foundation
At The Concrete Rose Foundation, we understand the importance of fostering the next generation's success. That's why we have a team of certified educators who are knowledgeable in a range of academic subjects, as well as mentoring and coaching. Our approach is different from other similar programs, as we strive to provide each student with tailored care and support to ensure their long-term success. We believe that every child has the potential for greatness, and we are here to help them unlock it.
