The #MoreThanAStrand Global Beauty Campaign seeks to strengthen the bond between mothers, daughters, and young girls across the tri-continent of U.S., Caribbean and Africa footprints through hair care. With this campaign, Mielle Organics aims to empower mothers and young girls through survivor storytelling, education, entrepreneurship and economic development on a global scale.
Mielle will travel the globe to find compelling stories of known and unknown influencer survivors. Our hope is that these organic stories will interconnect and have an impact on other women struggling with similar issues. Survivor stories will include but are not limited to: class abuse, domestic violence, bullying, anxiety, depression, mental illness, cancer, covid-19, substance abuse, colorism and more!
Mielle Organics’ global positioning campaign is the perfect opportunity to empower our mothers and daughters of color with the gifts of education, entrepreneurship, and the ability to lead economic development within their community.
