The Importance of Culture, Diversity, and Self-Love: Paving the Way with What Makes You Feel Beautiful




In today's global society, embracing diversity and fostering a sense of belonging is more important than ever. At What Makes You Feel Beautiful (WMYFB), we understand that culture and diversity are integral to shaping our identities and perspectives. We believe that appreciating and celebrating our differences is a crucial step toward building a more inclusive and harmonious world.


Self-love is at the core of our mission. It is the foundation upon which we build confidence, resilience, and a positive self-image. We recognize that self-love is not just about accepting our physical appearance but also about embracing our unique cultural backgrounds and experiences. By promoting self-love, we empower individuals to appreciate their own value and worth, regardless of societal standards or expectations.



At What Makes You Feel Beautiful, we are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment where individuals can explore and celebrate their cultural identities. Our programs and initiatives are designed to foster self-love, self-acceptance, and a deep appreciation for diversity. By highlighting the beauty of different cultures and encouraging self-love, we pave the way for a more inclusive and accepting society.



We believe that when individuals feel confident in their own skin and proud of their heritage, they are more likely to respect and value the diversity in others. This, in turn, creates a ripple effect, leading to a more inclusive and empathetic world. Through our efforts, we hope to inspire a movement of self-love and cultural appreciation that transcends boundaries and brings people together.



Join us on this journey of self-discovery and cultural celebration. Together, we can make a difference and create a world where everyone feels beautiful, just as they are.


 

The Maui GEMS program is a transformative initiative designed to empower young girls in Maui County by providing them with professional experience, mentorship, and skill development. As part of the What Makes You Feel Beautiful (WMYFB) organization, the program aims to foster confidence, leadership qualities, and a sense of community among girls aged 13 to 19, especially those from low-income families or households still recovering from the Maui fires.


The program is structured into two phases: a pre-internship phase that includes workshops on resume building, interview skills, professional communication, and networking; and a core internship phase where participants gain hands-on experience at local businesses. Supported by the JD Finish Line Foundation, the Maui GEMS program also offers a drop-in center where girls can access food, workshops, classes, and mentors, as well as a paid internship opportunity.


We are excited to invite you to a special event that showcases the remarkable impact of the Maui GEMS program. Join us at our free Career Development Conference on April 12th, where you can learn more about the program, meet some of our inspiring participants and mentors, and discover how you can get involved in this important initiative.

Whether you're interested in becoming a mentor, offering internship opportunities at your business, or simply supporting our mission, there are numerous ways to contribute to the success of Maui GEMS. By getting involved, you'll be playing a crucial role in empowering the next generation of female leaders in our community.


Don't miss this opportunity to be part of a movement that is changing lives and shaping the future of Maui's young women. Share this invitation with your friends, family, and colleagues, and help us spread the word about the Maui GEMS program. Together, we can make a lasting difference in the lives of these incredible girls.
