If you are a teen in high school or college looking for a hands-on community service opportunity, consider starting a GlamourGals chapter at your school . Over half of seniors living in residential care do not receive visitors. You have the power to change that!

GlamourGals teen volunteers provide our signature program of beauty makeovers to senior residents living in care on an monthly basis, bringing them community and renewed sense of self.

Each chapter (club) is supported by GlamourGals National staff who provide training, materials, leadership development, ongoing mentoring and recognition to ensure success.

You bring the creativity, excitement, and passion for our mission, and we support you in every step of the way.

Mission Statement

GlamourGals Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission to organize and support volunteer chapters in high school and college who provide companionship and our signature program of complimentary beauty makeovers to elderly residents in senior care. Our impact is two fold: Elderly residents in care feel a renewed sense of community and self-worth. Teen Volunteers gain essential leadership skills demonstrating empathy and compassion through our intergenerational programming.

Description

GlamourGals is a nonprofit organization that organizes student-led chapters based in high schools (grades 9-12) and colleges across the country. Rachel Doyle founded GlamourGals in 2000 in memory of her grandmother. The first GlamourGals makeover took place in Commack, New York with only three volunteers. We currently have more than 1,700 volunteers in 16 states, and 100 chapters visiting senior homes in their communities. Our volunteers provide seniors with a restored sense of dignity through personal attention and warmth of caring touch, as well as the opportunity to share their stories. We also focus on leadership development for our volunteers, providing them with leadership training, mentorships, and professional development workshops.
