Join GlamourGals in celebrating Valentine’s Day with makeovers, manicures, and intergenerational connections!
GlamourGals volunteers use makeup as a tool to provide seniors with a sense of community, through personal attention, caring touch, and the opportunity to share their stories. We will be offering manicures, basic makeovers, gentle facials, and conversation to visually impaired seniors at Visions.
GlamourGals will provide all the tools and training you need to make a senior feel loved this Valentine’s Day.

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.
