When Beautiful Response first began we were still in college and had zero experience in nonprofit management.
Since then, we have grown alongside of Beautiful Response. Beautiful Response was started when friends and family responded to the story of Patrick, William, and Raising Up Hope for Uganda. We returned to the United States with a plan to send a few (6) of the oldest kids in Uganda to school. After sharing their stories with friends and family, we had enough funding to send all of the kids to school. We were blown away by people's generosity and decided to go through the process of becoming a 501c3. Beautiful Response has grown every year, and so have the kids that we support. |
We know there is need.
We see hope and potential. We witness incredible, grass roots work. We build relationships. We develop partnerships. We provide resources. We support and empower. We respond. |
