About Shape Your World
Who Is Shape Your World
Who We Are, What We Do, and Why We Do It.
Shape Your World Society (SYWS) is a Non-Profit Organization whose mission is to help women and their families. Since its inception in January 17th, 2011, “Shape Your World Society” has helped hundreds of women do exactly what the name suggests (Grow, Evolve, Empower); providing women with the tools to take charge and wrestle back more control over their lives by looking and feeling better about themselves. This enables them to become better people and face the world and their families with greater hope and confidence.
The goal is to empower and restore emotional confidence in women. And to educate and inspire their development with the sum total of our knowledge, experience, expertise and resources. The Shape Your World Society Board is run by a group of amazing women (volunteers, staff, past challengers and sponsors) who work tirelessly throughout the year to provide the TOTAL MAKEOVER CHALLENGE that is offered in Online.
