HISTORY For its first year in 2009, the foundation is based in Atlanta, GA. Founder, Sahar Simmons created a foundation based off of her book series, Briana’s Neighborhood. Her motto, “Dare to Dream” is about empowering young women to accomplish and dream big. There are ultimately no limitations to personal success, only the vision to accomplish them. Simmons wants her book series and foundation to be a tool of encouragement to work hard and believe in yourself. |
