Actress Yara Shahidi Started Her Own Mentoring Club!

Yara Shahidi is wearing the holiday headband we all need — they’re snowflakes! So cute!

People are usually super busy around the holidays, but this black-ish actress is MEGA busy — and not just because of the holiday season.

Turns out, Yara is in her last year of high school, has prom coming up, will be putting out a digital series, stars on a hit TV show AND she started her own mentoring club!

“I started [it] with Ann Tisch,” she tells W mag. “It was a lot of the girls from the 12 different YWLN schools around New York and we all met at Ann’s house [during my recent NYC trip].”

One of the things the group talks about is the recent election: “We had the most lovely conversation discussing what this election meant to us and discussing what actions we can take from here on out, given that for many of us it wasn’t the result we expected or wanted.”

Yara adds, “To see all of these passions, hopes, and dreams of mine come to fruition is pretty darn cool.”

Also pictured below are Miles Brown, Marsai Martin, Marcus Scribner, Sophia Grace Brownlee, Jake Miller, and Barbara Palvin at the gift lounge at iHeartRadio’s Jingle Ball 2016 in Los Angeles.

FYI: Yara is wearing Schutz shoes.
