Our Story

In 2020 Jaquay began a journey of adventure, exploration, and faith that allowed her to discover new passions to embark on for the years to come. During that time, she often reflected on her teenage years remembering what she thought her life would be like as an adult. Though she planned her life one way, God had greater plans in store. Her path did not align with the typical or traditional ways of society, making her think about the young girls she knew in her community. The passion to mentor young girls swelled in her heart and the idea of starting an outreach program surfaced. In 2022, Jaquay stepped out on faith and started Created for Greatness.

 

This non-profit outreach program would be a joyful privilege to motivate and inspire young girls to think about their future from our Creator's perspective rather than their own, their families, or society’s. Jaquay realized that creating a safe space for young girls to meet and think about how God created them for greatness would have been extremely beneficial to her as a young girl. Nonetheless, this would allow her an opportunity to connect with the girls in her community and pour into their lives.

 

At Created For Greatness, we focus on identifying our passions and gifts that bring us joy as well as how we can impart that joy into the world around us. We embrace our uniqueness as part of our identity. We take delight in encouraging one another regarding the greatness inside of us through fellowship, conversation, art, fun activities and more all to prepare for our future greatness that will make a positive impact across the globe.
