Pretty Purposed

🙏🏾💜 As we reflect on our year, we are beyond grateful for all of the organizations that have invested in our work and believed in our mission! 🌟✨ This year, Pretty Purposed was the proud recipient of the Hotties Helping Hotties Grant, an initiative of Megan Thee Stallion's Pete and Thomas Foundation, and we are so honored. 🎉👑 Pretty Purposed was able to use the funds to supply and stock our brand new, girl-centered space because our girls deserve a space that is fully equipped and built just for them. 🏠💪🏾 The Pete & Thomas Foundation is committed to supporting great nonprofit organizations, and through this initiative awarded grants to 30 nonprofits making a positive impact in their communities across the pillars of Education, Health and Wellness, Housing, and Community Goodwill.

Established in honor of her father, Joseph Pete Jr., and her mother, Holly Thomas, Megan Thee Stallion created the Pete & Thomas Foundation to uplift women, children, senior citizens, and underserved communities in Houston and across the globe, and we are proud to be a part of that legacy! 💜🔥

🫖👑 This past weekend, over 70 Pretty Purposed participants, facilitators, board members, staff, and an incredible intern gathered at the elegant Hotel Petersburg, Tapestry Collection by Hilton for our Annual End of the Year Tea Party and it was a perfect celebration! 💜✨ Girls came dressed to impress, filling the room with beauty, joy, and the kind of energy that happens when you bring together a community of young women who have spent a whole year growing, showing up, and pouring into one another. 👗🌸

From the laughter to the conversations to the memories made, this was the perfect way to close out an incredible year and remind our girls just how far they have come. To every girl, facilitator, board member, staff member, and intern who was in that room, thank you for being the heart of Pretty Purposed and for making this year one for the books! 💪🏾💜
