Strengthening the Village That Builds Leaders

For 30+ years, Blueprint for Womanhood has been a cultural home for Black girls in Phoenix—a place where identity is honored, history is reclaimed, and leadership is nurtured through truth, love, and community. Founded by Executive Director Fatimah Halim, the program grew from a small circle of mothers and mentors into a transformative institution where young women are affirmed, educated, and empowered to stand tall. Hundreds of girls have emerged with confidence, cultural pride, and purpose that continues to ripple through their communities.

Impact That Speaks

  • Hundreds of young women transformed into confident, culturally grounded leaders

  • A $30,000 gift sent 15 girls to Ghana, connecting them to their ancestral roots

  • Alumni return as mentors, educators, and professionals, crediting the program for helping them find their voice and purpose

Our Focus

We nurture leadership through:

  • Identity & Self-Knowledge – teaching history with accuracy and pride

  • Community & Sisterhood – building a circle that protects and uplifts

  • Purpose & Legacy – passing wisdom from elders to youth

  • Celebration & Initiation – honoring growth and marking the transition into womanhood

Expanding the Blueprint

As curriculum erasures and cultural disconnects deepen, our work has never been more urgent. We are expanding to reach more girls than ever through:

  • Scholarships that ensure access for every girl

  • Educator & Coordinator Stipends to sustain program excellence

  • Student Ambassador Program preparing girls for college, trades, and leadership

  • Cultural Immersion Experiences, including HBCU & Civil Rights Tours and future Africa cohorts
