viBe programs and performances affect more lives than just the girls participating. Our audiences represent diverse communities in New York City. Listening to viBe girls articulate their dreams, hopes and fears inspires their peers in the community to live their lives with increased courage and exuberance.

To this end, we also partner with public schools, arts and community-based organizations to ensure the greatest diversity in our participants and supporters.
