Who We Are
The Peace & Beauty Project is a green soul esteem renaissance that encourages Black girls to honor inner beauty, make health and Earth conscious choices, and share what we learn with others.
What We Do
Using the vehicle of natural and organic beauty, The Peace & Beauty Project reminds us of our power to initiate and lead this movement for healthier lifestyles and greener communities.
Why We Do It
The Peace & Beauty Project recognized that there were no green beauty campaigns, products, or initiatives targeting Black girls. More importantly, they realized that there was a need for more leadership among young sisters in our communities. PB decided to do something positive about it.
