And It's a Wrap

Fashion Forum hosted its final event of the 2006/07 school year on May 19th. Our speaker, Rachel Doyle, inspired those who attended with the story of how she founded GlamourGals seven years ago and her hopes and aspirations for the nonprofit going forward. She fielded questions from the audience on a variety of topics including how to find funding for an organization, where she wants to be in five years, and makeup trends she is seeing today.

Those who attended agreed that Rachel's most inspiring point was that GlamourGals differs from other organizations that focus on young women in that it does not stress 'me, me, me and me' but rather GlamourGals is about 'you'. Through the focus on another person Rachel says the high school girls involved in the group learn about compassion, become courageous, and in the end have a higher level of self esteem.

Stay tuned for our fall calendar - which we are currently finalizing with a number of stellar speakers!
