When it comes to seeing beautiful, one of the most wonderful parts of what we get to do is raise awareness for, and donate to, wonderful non-profit organizations. October's featured non-profit of the month, Realize Your Beauty, leaves us completely inspired. We are honored and humbled to support a beautiful organization foundationally built upon changing the way young people, literally, realize their beauty. 

Why Realize Your Beauty?
Spend five minutes talking to founder, Stacey Lorin Merkl, and you'll feel more beautiful. Your conversation will leave you inspired and you'll understand that the passion behind Realize Your Beauty that is transforming lives.
