A more just world
We use data and digital strategies to help nonprofits and individuals thrive. That’s true whether we’re working in sexual and reproductive health education or broader social justice initiatives.
Who We Are
Founded by award-winning sexual health educator and entrepreneur Twanna A. Hines, FUNKY BROWN CHICK, Inc. is dedicated to creating a more just, loving, and healthy world free of oppression.
We help social justice causes reach wider audiences and achieve financial sustainability using data, digital, and mobile technologies. Our work spans across reproductive justice, immigration, human rights, and other interconnected social justice areas.
Where We Impact
As a US-based firm, we also align with international partners in similar time zones, including those in the Global South. Our founder often works remotely from Europe, bringing a global perspective to our projects. Since the late 1990s, she has intermittently lived and worked in Europe, including for the United States Department of State. This international experience is valuable for our collaborations with European-based NGOs and international organizations in the following areas of social impact:
-
Healthcare
Civic Engagement and Voting Rights
-
Human Rights
-
Food security
-
Climate Justice
-
Immigration Justice
-
Income and Employment
-
Racial Justice

Art for Social Change

From Our Founder
In case you and I haven’t yet had the pleasure to meet, I’m Twanna. I started FUNKY BROWN CHICK nearly 20 years ago. In the beginning, it was a business that supported my writing, teaching, speaking, and other artistic endeavors to spread sexual and reproductive health education. Throughout, I also built marketing campaigns and honed my skills while working full time for Newsweek, Planned Parenthood, Land O’Lakes and other companies.
In 2018, I expanded my team and began working solely for FUNKY BROWN CHICK full time. Inspired by Kimberlé Crenshaw’s concept of intersectionality, we recognize that everything is interconnected. This belief drives us to support nonprofits and NGOs with data analytics, strategic planning, and digital marketing services, helping them raise funds, grow their supporter base, and amplify their impact.
If you’d like to learn more about what working together might look like, let’s schedule a call. We’ll discuss your challenges, and chat about how we can partner up to help you achieve your goals. Or, if we think another firm might be a better match, we’d be happy to refer you. Let’s get started.
If you’re here for sexual and reproductive health education service, hit me up.
