    This is a beautiful story and I hope it inspires many young girls that come from bad neighborhoods. Camden, NJ is one of the most neglected and dangerous cities with the highest rate of crime in NJ. It is not everyday when an adult decides to step up and become a role model for children in schools. Hopefully, others will follow and this lady deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for promoting peace and triumph.

    Would love to participate in sth like this when I was a shy, depressed and awkward kid. These girls are young and they already can believe in their power, they believe in themselves and they know their worth. You have no idea how knowing these things is saving you in doing stupid things in young age. What that lady did is inspiring! A true hero!💜 I love that Bey is supporting places like this!

    Tawanda what a wonderful project you are doing with these girls and boys to keep them out of the mischief and showing them that there is a better way then the streets,drugs crime, abuse and so much more negativity in the world. You are empowering them and making the stronger, building up their self esteem. They may not have parents at home that help them the way that you do.
