OUR PURPOSE

Through mentoring, storytelling, and community, Bertha Mae’s Diamonds helps young people shine through their struggles and discover their brilliance. Every part of this journey is rooted in love, faith, and legacy. My mission is simple: to turn brokenness into brilliance and make sure that every Diamond has a Bertha Mae to guide them.

I’m grateful you’re here—whether you’re a parent, mentor, supporter, or future Diamond, welcome to the family.

TESTIMONIES

ASHLEY JONES

"While attending BMD's "Diamond in the Rough" I noticed how open and vocal my oldest daughter Jourdyn was becoming. Typically she's quiet, stand offish, and to herself, but in the program she was very much so present. Then there's my youngest daughter, Jayse, that loved every activity and just being around all the other children. "

TAYNA BROWN

"Rylee told me how much fun she had with her sister and also how many friends she's made at group programming. I love that for her."

BRITTANY WILLIAMS

"Amora loved it. Us as the parents loved that she was comfortable enough to leave our sight. Don't change anything. Keep going."
