Cinnamongirl takes girls of color to travel the world. Our high schoolers go on an international trip, middle school within the states, and elementary in California. We believe that travel is a privilege that should be more accessible to all because the growth and understanding of the world learned while traveling is incomparable to anything else.

Exposure is a priority for Cinnamongirl.

We intentionally place girls in rooms, conversations, and experiences that expand what she believes is possible for her own life.

Not just showing her the world. Showing her her place in it.

From engaging with female hotel owners, to Sephora corporate employees, LVMH Paris office visit, traveling to over 10 destinations over the years — we know exposure.

At Cinnamongirl we build confidence, belonging, and leadership for girls of color — and we connect them to rooms that change what they believe is possible. Learn more at the link in bio.

Is Sephora the best place for women to work? After this visit, I think our girls may think so! It was amazing to meet so many professionals so passionate about not only their work, but their work place! So many women stated they can’t imagine working elsewhere after such an amazing experience working at Sephora and we are truly grateful for the knowledge shared with our youth. Sephora Life

Paris is one of the best cities in the world to learn about fashion — and we did it right. 🇫🇷✨

From the Dior Museum to the Louis Vuitton Dream tour to meeting a member of Pharrell’s creative team at LV headquarters to finding a Senegalese designer whose work Beyoncé has worn — we covered it all.

Paris fashion is history. Paris fashion is culture. Paris fashion is business. And now our girls know they belong in every part of it.

Save this if you’re planning a fashion focused trip to Paris. 🧡

“This year, we reimagined what leadership development looks like for girls of color. We stopped asking “What skills do girls need?” and started asking “Who do girls need to be before they can lead authentically?”

The answer became our north star: Girls need to belong to themselves first.

Not to spaces that weren’t designed for them. Not to expectations that ask them to shrink. But to themselves — fully, unapologetically, powerfully…” - Lena Jennings, Cinnamongirl Executive Director
