Our purpose
The rise of individualism has quietly separated us, leaving too many women feeling disconnected and without community. Those feelings are often accompanied by loneliness, emotional detachment, and even boredom.
There is no age limit on having friends or having fun, and while enjoying time alone is good, we as humans were made for connection.
With us, finding your people will be a joy rather than an obligation. Our approach offers opportunities to do fun things while building relationships that can last a lifetime. Because we handle all of the work and planning, all you have to do is show up!
Life is a party when you’re surrounded by your people. You just need to make sure you have the right people to invite.
Mission statement
While traditional non profits focus on specific financial or demographic disparities, Better AroundUs addresses a universal truth: every woman needs community to thrive physically, emotionally, and mentally. We build this support system by connecting Memphis women with one another and local businesses, while creating space for self reflection. Because, the better we know ourselves, the better we can support our community, and the better we can make the world around us!
