Description

A valentine's day event for black and mixed children and teens who are being raised by non-black caregivers. An event hosted by The Shea Butter Bar and the Good Works Project/Branching Out Family Services, Sista Love Galentine's Sip & Whip will celebrate black and mixed girls and teens who are being raised by non-black caregivers. Many of these girls are part of the foster adopt community, others are simply from biracial families. We will be creating inclusion, and intersectionality through having a fun and festive Sip & Whip Event at The Shea Butter Bar making shea butter and creating camaraderie between girls, their caregivers, and black and brown mentors who help them to feel embraced by the black and brown community and help to provide mirrors through which to see their future selves in. Open to 16 girls and an adult caregiver. For girls ages 5+, a Sip & Whip at The Shea Butter Bar is where you literally whip up a batch of your very own Shea Butter while sipping fun mock-tails and listening to great music. Shea butter can be applied on your skin and hair. Items provided: Apron, Hand Mixer, Gloves, Mixing Bowls, 8oz Jars, Spatula, Mock-Tails for Kids, and Endless R&B. Spaces will fill up quickly. A small donation/deposit will be required to hold the spot due to the popularity of this event. There will be a waitlist available. Branching Out Family Services is on a mission to support families when life gets tricky. We offer family coaching, educational counseling, HCBS services, behavior coaching, advocacy, intervention and expedited referrals.  We walk alongside our families every step of the way.
