About
Just Believe is a Nonprofit 501 (c)(3) youth organization established in 2008 in Elk Grove, CA. My name is Rennette, I
founded Just Believe in an effort to inspire teenage mothers and disadvantaged youth, to believe that anything is possible
if they believe in themselves and their endless capabilities. Growing up in an unsettling family dynamic and ultimately
becoming a teenaged mother, I Dreamed of a better life, I Believed I could Achieve it….. and I did!
This is the hope we want to instill in our youth.​ Our goal is to share our experience, knowledge of available resources,
and through our youth's own individual commitment and determination, they will have the ability to navigate the course
of their own life. We believe by motivating them to Dream, inspiring them to Believe and encouraging them to Achieve,
they will successfully transition from where they are too where they want to be!
​
Just Believe is also committed to having a positive impact on others in need within our community. Through a
collaborative effort, an alliance known as Sisterhood in Service (SIS) was initiated. This alliance unites like-minded
women, passionate about serving the needs of others through community service and special events.
