An enrichment club for Black and Brown girls, ages 12–18. Where girls discover their power and learn they belong everywhere.
Pretty Smart Cookies is an enrichment club for Black and Brown girls, ages 12–18. We create spaces where girls discover their power and learn they belong everywhere, from history and beauty to travel, business, relationships, and athletics.
We're building women who will shape culture, lead industries, and own their narratives.
Representation matters. Mentorship matters. Belonging matters. That's why we exist, to give Black and Brown girls positive role models, trusted mentors, and a sisterhood of peers who understand their experience and share their ambition.
Every young Black and Brown girl deserves a big sister figure to guide, nurture, and champion her dreams.
So we built a sisterhood where guidance flows naturally, where curiosity is celebrated, and where girls see their potential reflected in the eyes of the women who came before them.
Pretty Smart Cookies is the bridge between experience and aspiration, a place where the warmth of sisterly mentorship meets the excitement of discovering one's own path. Through travel, art, entrepreneurship, and everything in between, we create spaces where girls can spread their wings under the watchful, caring eyes of women who've walked similar roads.
The club started with 5 girls. Today, we've touched more than 100 cookies across 22 U.S. states and 10 countries. But the heart has stayed the same from day one.
Annie Malone built an empire to fund a community. Tracey Ellis Ross built a brand to see a community. Susan L. Taylor built a magazine to heal a community. Pretty Smart Cookies was built in that same tradition — not just a club, but an ecosystem for the girls who will become the next Annie, the next Tracey, the next Susan.
Every cookie deserves to see herself and become who she was always meant to be.
The data is clear, and so is the call.
Black and Brown girls need spaces where they see themselves reflected, feel celebrated, and have access to women who understand their experience. Pretty Smart Cookies is that space.
Every Pretty Smart Cookie gets access to culturally grounded programming designed to build her up, mind, heart, hands, and future.
Trusted women who look like her, pour into her, and show her what's possible.
HERstory sessions, Black and Indigenous heritage, and stories she won't find in her textbook.
Masterclasses in baking, business, beauty, travel, writing, and more, led by women at the top of their fields.
A global sisterhood of girls who get her, across 22 U.S. states and 10 countries.
Five extraordinary women who poured into our girls — live on stage, on the air, and on screen. More coming all year long.
An executive creative director, a beauty founder, a Howard professor, an ER doctor, a collegiate athlete, a travel entrepreneur, a lifestyle influencer, and the Prima Chief Cookie herself. Every voice that shaped PSC's foundation year.
Are you a professional woman who wants to pour into the next generation? We'd love to hear from you.
