Believe in Love Like it's Everything (B.i.l.l.i.e.) Inc. is a 501c3 charitable nonprofit organization based in Richmond, VA. Our mission is to reduce generational poverty in socioeconomically disadvantaged communities. Our strategic plan includes providing at-risk teenagers with vital information & skills necessary to enhance their chances of obtaining stable employment and/or pursuing entrepreneurship. We currently target teenage girls to participate in our "Billie Girls" Program. We enforce the importance of obtaining social and life skills as well as the need to acquire and maintain self-love. Some of our other focus areas include:
-
substance abuse & delinquency prevention through the SPORT evidence-based program
-
youth assistance with social issues (example: bullying)
-
healthy lifestyles by participating in Virginia Foundation for Healthy Youth's Y-Street program
-
teenage pregnancy prevention through our partnership with the Office of Women's Health (OWH)
-
Introduction to Computer Science (CodeVA resources)
-
financial planning and stability guidance (W!SE certification assistance)
-
tips and assistance with higher education obtainment
The ideal B.i.l.l.i.e. girl is vibrant, friendly, and excited about the possibilities of her future! At this time, our capacity allows us to have a maximum of 15 "B.i.l.l.i.e. Girls" in each of our program sites. We are currently at capacity. We also organize several events throughout the year that the entire community is welcome to participate in!
Our vision is that present to the local communities and to the world at large, a safe & organized platform to commune, network, and to grow together. In order to do so, we must each take the pledge to spread the love!
Core Values
Love: We believe that with the existence of love for self and others, a safe and progressive community can exist.
Consistency: We believe that positive results derive from consistency. Without consistency, nothing can progress nor grow to its full potential.
Individuality: We understand that no two individuals are the same. People vary by race, gender identity, and beyond. We use our differences to make a difference for the betterment of a humane society.
Teamwork: Everyone is to be treated with equal respect and honor. More can be accomplished if everyone is unified.
