B.L.I.N.D or Beautiful Love Incorporated Nonprofit Development was founded in 1997 as a means of bringing culture and arts to inner-city areas to cultivate change. This profit was set up to provide community-driven development for inner-city youth through music, dance, theater and visual arts. Giving them a something they desire would mean a bright future head for them. Also it encouraging other pop icons to volunteer their time and talent are just a few of the ways Erykah Badu is working toward positive cultural change.
