Brown Girl Rise

Mission

We cultivate solidarity between girls & non-binary femmes of the Global Majority. We are an intergenerational BIPOC sisterhood reclaiming connection to body, community, land, health, and creativity to cultivate a just future where we rise together.

Bottom Line for Portland

Donating to BGR supports the next generation of leaders and change-makers in the Portland metro area. Our winter leadership and summer camp programs build joy and confidence in our youth while simultaneously uplifting their incredible expertise so they can become leaders in their community. We are seen as experts in anti-racist and feminist work in Portland, previously partnering with PPS to support their equity work.
