Together we can.
Dr. Robyn S. Joppy
Founder and Visionary
Dr. Robyn, also known as “the fixer” and “idea woman,” is a social entrepreneur. Moreover, she is passionate about finding and implementing solutions to economic, social, cultural, and environmental concern. Through her identification with corporate social responsibility, she strives to ensure ISOB’s (International Shades of Beauty) goals of philanthropy, activism, and charitable giving by engaging in, and or encouraging others, to support volunteering and “ethically-oriented practices.” We want to cultivate the gifts and talents of our girls by giving them the gift of EXPOSURE TO OPPORTUNITIES, so they learn the importance of not just surviving but also thriving.

Our Mission
Our Mission is to elevate the International Shades of Beauty’s (ISOB) three foundational pillars which are: Education, Integrity, and Economic Development for Empowerment for girls.
Our History
The Project-Cultivate, Inc. was founded in 2020 in response to International Shades of Beauty’s (ISOB) community service project called Project Cultivate. The community service project was live during ISOB Virtual 2020 Hair, Beauty, and Wellness Trade Show.
During the project, we were able to sponsor over forty-five girls in both Nairobi, Kenya, and the United States of America to attend the ISOB event. Additionally, we provided food to approximately six hundred children at an orphanage in Nairobi, Kenya, and distributed journals, Project Cultivate T-shirts, and hygiene gift bags.
Organized as a call to action, Project-Cultivate is growing, expanding, and reaching hundreds, and one day thousands, of girls globally in an effort to assist their path to impact and serve their communities as mentors and examples of success in every area of their lives.
Project Cultivate is the vision of ISOB (International Shades of Beauty) founder Dr. Robyn S. Joppy. The purpose of the project is to elevate ISOB’s three pillars which are: Education, Integrity, and Economic Development for Empowerment for girls whom we call ISOB Ambassadors.
To CULTIVATE is to possess the ability to grow and develop.
CULTIVATE – this acronym was divinely revealed to Dr. Robyn S. Joppy for this initiative. Each letter represents a word. Each word anchors us to our purpose. Each purpose is part of our collective influence to impact our communities and each other.
- CONFIDENCE – Assure the girls are strong and confident in who they are and what they represent.
- UNIQUE – Assure the girls know they are so special and uniquely made; no one else has their DNA.
- LEADERSHIP – Assure the girls know they don’t have to follow a crowd; they should set the standard.
- TALENT – Assure the girls know everyone is born with a talent and if they don’t know, they will.
- INTELLIGENT – Assure the girls know they are intelligent. Words like “stupid” and “dumb” are not acceptable.
- VOICE – Assure the girls know they have a voice to speak truth to power.
- ARTICULATE – Assure the girls know they have a right to articulate their position, passion, and concerns.
- TENACIOUS – Assure the girls know mistakes are inevitable and it is ok. They will hear “be persistent.”
- EXCELLENCE – Assure the girls know the importance of doing everything in excellence. Have a spirit of excellence.
PROJECT CULTIVATE: PAST INITIATIVES
Project Cultivate encouraged girls to write their hopes, dreams, and goals for the future in gifted journals. We believe where there is no vision, there may be no progression. Additionally, we supplied girls with hygiene and beauty products. To get involved in our next initiative complete our contact form below!
