Tu Organics Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to advancing economic opportunity, self-sufficiency, and sustainable career pathways for women and underserved communities through cosmetology education and entrepreneurship training. Founded by Mariatu Tu Browne, the Foundation is grounded in the belief that vocational education is a powerful catalyst for healing, financial independence, and generational change. Through the Tu Organics Foundation Center, we equip individuals with the skills, credentials, and confidence to rebuild their lives and strengthen their communities—one license, one client, and one business at a time.
