On November 20, 2022, after two years of hosting exclusively online meetings due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Beautiful Brown Girls will return to hosting brunches in person. This year will be the second annual Friendsgiving. Over the last twelve years, women of color have been attending Beautiful Brown Girls brunches to support and accept each other while enjoying meals.


Founded in 2010 by Christina Duren, Beautiful Brown Girls has blossomed into more than a brunch club. It is a community made up of 33 chapters, including the newly launched San Diego chapter.


"To build a strong nation, we need sister circles and other strong communities," says founder Christina Duren. "Beautiful Brown Girls is proof of what can happen when you find your people. Not only can you bond over a delicious meal, but you can also become an agent for change in your community. As we enter into our thirteenth year, we truly believe that Beautiful Brown Girls is a platform for women who are looking to be encouraged, loved, empowered, accepted and uplifted by other women of color. Beautiful Brown Girls creates a safe space for women of color to brunch. We also offer virtual and in-person events for women of color as they build their sister circle and maintain professional networks."


This Friendsgiving, Beautiful Brown Girls hopes to unite women of color and help them to establish a better work-life balance. Already, 65,000 women have participated in monthly brunch events, 12,000 African-American women have participated in a virtual event, and 450 women have attended the annual Girlfriends Getaway destination retreats.


Beautiful Brown Girls has also forged strategic partnerships with many key stakeholders and community-based organizations nationwide, such as the Susan G. Komen Foundation, YWCA South Florida, and Michelle Obama's When We All Vote voting registration initiatives.
