Founded in 2010, Beautiful U Ministries is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit, Christian organization passionately serving the needs of at-risk pregnant teens and teen mothers. A safe, secure family environment is an essential part of our process, which is why we operate a “family-style” program where each applicant is placed in either a Beautiful U Satellite-Home or in the Transitional Living Center (TLC).

From Megan Lopez, Volunteer Coordinator at Lazarus House:
Wanted to send you a picture of the bookshelves, they worked perfectly! The size is great, the kids can walk right over to it and take the books on top to read. We are so blessed and grateful to you (Kim Haag) and the other members from the Ladies Auxiliary! Thank you for all your help!!
And, we thank Kim, too, for leading this effort.
